Campaign Rides

Friendly, fun, free rides for all.

Southampton Cycling Campaign rides include Sunday rides of around 20 miles, meeting at 9.45am, leaving promptly at 10am and returning around 1.30pm. These are usually on the third Sunday of the month – but not always. The rides explore local countryside using quiet roads, rural lanes, bridleways, cycle paths and restricted byways, and are suitable for touring, hybrid and mountain bikes. There is a stop for coffee and cake approximately half way. Children over 10 yrs welcome with an adult.

This year’s programme is below. Extra rides that are added might have been added on https://www.sotoncan.org.uk/ (events) or email membership@southamptoncyclingcampaign.org.uk to check.

If unavoidable changes (eg adverse weather conditions) an email will be sent to those on the members list, or email lindsibluemel@hotmail.co.uk or membership@southamptoncyclingcampaign.org.uk 

Here is the programme of campaign rides for 2026.

Kidical Mass – rides for all

Rides are on https://www.sotoncan.org.uk/ (events) and https://www.facebook.com/KidicalMassSouthampton/   Most rides start Guildhall Sq, and there’s usually a Glow Ride around the town parks in December too.

Passengers in trailers, bike seats, cargo bikes etc are of course very welcome. All riders need to be able to ride independently as we use public roads. Little riders need to be able to pedal without stabilisers. If you would like to take part but canโ€™t ride independently, please do contact us as we have a number of riders within the local cargo bike community who may be able to take passengers.

If you can help by marshalling, please message or turn up in time for the marshals briefing on the day.
