What’s On in 2020

MEET & GREET RIDE – POSTPONED DUE TO COVID-19

Saturday 21st March  2020 

Penyffordd Car Park from 10.30am.

Our first try at this!

Many people say it’s difficult to meet people to ride with so here it is, your chance to just come along and meet other riders who want to do the kind of ride you want to do.  The more people who come, the more chance of meeting like-minded riders.

Come along, meet other riders, get advice on routes and options from Rainbow Trails stewards and maybe have a cuppa and a chat as well. If you use our Facebook Community let people know that you’re coming along and maybe you’ll already have new friends to ride with by the time you get there.

Meet old friends, make new ones, go riding – what could be better!

Free to all – but please consider becoming a paid member to help keep this wonderful place going. It’s only £12 per year (April to March).
