Our first Ride MK Cycling Festival will take place in June 2025. Jump in your saddle and conquer one of our ‘cycling city’s’ four routes, designed to be accessible to a range of ages, abilities and experiences.

Choose from one of our four carefully planned routes: 100 Mile Road Route, 50 Mile Road Route, 25 Mile Red Route or 1 mile Ready Set Go route specifically for children. All participants will receive a medal in recognition of their achievement.

Ride MK is a fundraising event where participants are required to ‘Gear up and give’ raising money to help our work supporting vulnerable and disadvantaged children in our community.

Ride High uses horses as a vehicle to connect with the children. The children learn to ride and care for the horses while also taking part in classroom sessions that aim to develop personal and life skills.

The programme helps teach the children to manage negative feelings such as anxiety and depression, promoting positive mental health. Learning new skills and pushing them out of their comfort zones develops their resilience and self-confidence, so they become happy individuals who participate more in society.
