What if you could connect with other people near you who just want to go out for a ride every now and then?

British Cycling created HSBC UK Ride Social to help cyclists get together and form their own groups. You can use it to search for other cyclists near you, find people who enjoy the same kind of riding as you do, and find social cycling groups in your local area.

If you’re thinking about organising your own rides, you can also use Ride Social to create groups, invite your friends to join or open them up to anyone, and set up rides whenever you like.

Ride Social is completely free to use. And with over 400 British Cycling accredited cycle routes available too, there’s plenty of inspiration on where to ride.
