Making cycling fun, social and part of everyday life

Lets ride?

There’s nothing quite like exploring Milton Keynes on two wheels with the people you care about. Family rides along the redways, weekend adventures through parks, and community events like Let’s Ride bring people together to enjoy cycling in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.

 

Riding with friends and family helps build confidence for younger or newer riders, and it turns a simple activity into something social and memorable.

 

It’s a great way to spend time outdoors, stay active, and experience the city from a new perspective — all while strengthening connections and creating lasting memories.

Group rides

Cycling with others can transform how you see the city — and yourself as a rider.

 

Whether it’s joining a Bike Bus to help children travel safely to school, or taking part in one of MK’s many local group rides, being part of a collective gives every journey a sense of purpose and community.

 

The Bike Bus initiative, for example, helps families leave the car at home while children ride together in a safe, supported group.

 

For adults, there are friendly social rides at all levels, from short local loops to longer weekend outings. Group riding builds motivation, confidence and camaraderie — and makes cycling something to look forward to.

Love to ride

If you like a little friendly motivation, group challenges can make cycling even more fun. The Love To Ride app turns everyday journeys into opportunities to celebrate your achievements and connect with other riders.

 

You can log your miles, set personal goals, join workplace or city-wide challenges, and even win prizes for participation.

 

More importantly, it’s about community spirit — encouraging others to ride, sharing stories, and seeing just how much cycling is already happening in Milton Keynes. Every mile logged helps show that cycling is thriving here — and that together, we’re making a real difference.

Cycling brings people together. It builds friendships, strengthens communities, and helps us see Milton Keynes in a whole new light.

 

When we ride together — for fun, for health, for everyday journeys — we’re creating a culture that’s active, inclusive and full of energy. Whether you’re new to cycling or a lifelong rider, there’s a place for you in this growing community.

Encourage others. Share the fun. Be part of the movement.
