Our brilliant ride leaders keep the calendar filled with rides throughout the year.   
Ride leaders are responsible for planning and managing our group rides.

What does a ride leader do?

• arrive 15-20 minutes before the ride starts
• come armed with a pen/pencil and your Ride Sheet will be provided, check and add any additional riders
• circulate the ride sheet amongst the riders ensuring everyone's emergency contact is correct
• check everyone is wearing a helmet
• give an introduction to the ride (route, pace, notable sections)
• be familiar with the planned route
• lead the ride by example, riding safely and obeying the highway code
• make sure the group stays together - no one gets dropped
• see the Ride Leader Handbook for more details


• If you're interested in becoming a ride leader for Swan Wheelers, please let a member of the committee know.
