Off-road rides

We’re offering off-road group rides to explore different paths around Brussels. Two flavours: skills-building, confidence-building rides for beginners or anyone who want to upskill and rides for intermediate/more experienced riders. These rides require gravel or MTB bikes.



Details

Each ride has at least two ride leaders, one in front and one in back to make sure no one gets left behind. Rides are around 3 hours.

We have a strict no-drop policy. Everyone stays together.

LIMITED SPACE.

All our activities are members only, however you are welcome to join one activity before deciding to become a member. Learn more about how to become a member here.
