We are delighted to be hosting a few events this year as part of the Edinburgh Festival of Cycling (EdFoc).

Last but not least, join us on a FREE 25-kilometre led ride around Edinburgh ending with a social (Bring Your Own) Picnic. The route starts and finishes at the Meadows by the Pavilion Cafe. We’ll take you down quiet paths connecting the Meadows, Granton, Leith and Holyrood Park. There will be several on-road sections to navigate too.

All are welcome. This is a social no-drop ride: which means that we do not have a minimum ride speed and that we will adjust the pace on the go making sure we stay together, and re-grouping where required. Children may join if they are accompanied by an adult and can ride a pedal cycle for the distance of our route.

To join all you need is:

• a working bike: any type will do;

• a helmet and a spare tube (compulsory);

• your own picnic, though there are numerous options to grab food in the cafes and shops by the Meadows.

Our rides are self-supported, which means we will be there for you as best we can but by signing up for this ride, you agree that Queens of Pain and the ride leaders are not responsible for your safety – you are ultimately responsible for your own safety and wellbeing.

Come ride with us! www.eventbrite.co.uk
