LLandegla - OnePlanet Adventure

What to Expect:
This is a social ride for anyone above beginner level, and OnePlanet Llandegla has a fantastic selection of trails for riders of all levels. However, it is important to remember that we will riding a mix of trails all over the hill so absolute beginners will may struggle with more technical trails- all riders must be comfortable in tackling red trails and some features. We can ride black trails too, but this will be down to the group as a whole- we can decide on the day what we want to shred!
We’ll meet in the spot below, get acquainted and head out for the day.
We’ll enjoy a little warm up on a climb or in a skills area, then when warm and ready we will head further afield, then we can take it from there; please remember that lots of the trails at the this centre are on the more technical side and require some fitness.
We will have a ‘lunch break’ in the middle of the day where we can grab some food, refuel and enjoy the incredible facilities at OnePlanet. There is an awesome cafe onsite that offers coffees, cakes and more as well as a bike shop.
It’s a super loose structure; we won’t be rushing to get done, we won’t be pushing to tick off features- the aim is to have fun and ride bikes!
No pressure, just good times!
Where to Meet Us:
We will be ready and waiting just outside the OnePlanet building at 10:00 ready to ride (we’re not going to hang around too long, so try to be on time so you don’t miss the ride).
Heather will be there wearing a top with the SheRides logo on, so be sure to make yourself known.

What Should you Bring?:
It’s super important to note that we will not ride with anyone who is not wearing a helmet!
Other than that, the protective gear that you bring is up to you- we normally ride with knee pads and maybe gloves, depending on the conditions. You’ll also need a bike that is trail suitable and safe, and some water to keep you going.
As this ride is taking place in October we would strongly recommend a rain jacket and riding pants so you have a better chance of staying warm and dry!
It is possible to hire a bike from the Cycle Hub bike shop, but we strongly recommend that you do it well in advance, if that’s your plan.
What Will it Cost?
The ride itself is totally free, we won’t be charging you anything for our company.
OnePlanet charges for car parking, the prices are as follows:
£6.00 per car and driver, plus £2 per passenger (As of 31st May 2024).
Under 16’s free
*An annual season ticket costs £99 and may be bought in the visitor centre or on our shop website.
Income from car parking charges helps towards the upkeep of the site, and the development of new facilities and trails, existing season ticket holders ride for free!
It’s totally up to you how long you stay for but aiming for the full day means we don’t have time restraints and the money goes to maintaining the trails- it’s a win, win.
Other than that, having some money spare for a bit of lunch and a coffee is great idea although you don’t have to buy anything if you don’t want to- feel free to bring your own pack lunch and snacks, as well as plenty of water.
