About Us
Welcome to Peak Gravel Gang! We’re a passionate community of cyclists who love the joy and sense of adventure that riding off-road brings. Our group was started on the belief that cycling is more than just a sport; it’s a way to explore the world, connect with nature, and build lasting friendships.
So whether you’re a seasoned rider or just starting out, this space is for you. We hope to offer something for everyone – relaxed social rides to more technical trails and plenty of coffee stops, we’re all about embracing the full spectrum of the cycling experience.
We strongly believe no one should be left behind. Our rides aren’t about covering miles it going fast but also about enjoying the journey and the camaraderie that comes with it. Our mission is to make gravel riding accessible and enjoyable for all, providing support, encouragement, and opportunities to learn and grow as cyclists.
So what are you waiting for – come and join us!
The Organisers
Rhona
I am Rhona, I started riding bikes because of the places and adventures they made possible, I started riding off-road because it was more acceptable to walk up the hills. I am so excited about the community we are forming here and want anyone and everyone to have the chance to experience the opportunities and joys of riding! Oh and I love dogs. They make every adventure even better.
Jess
Heya, I’m Jess! I started riding bikes to keep fit while recovering from running injuries. Commuting and social rides in London got me hooked! I love how far you can travel on a bike, the sense of freedom, the chats with fellow riders, and, of course, the coffee stops! I’m SO HAPPY and excited to be part of this group. Gravel riding is a fun challenge, and I’m eager to learn, develop, and meet new people.
Hetty
I’m Hetty! I like maps, type two fun, dressing like a pack of crayons and a good cafe stop. When I got into mountain biking in my 20’s, I finally felt like I’d found my ‘thing’ and loved how it made me feel strong, both mentally and physically. I’m psyched to be part of Peak Gravel Gang because I am passionate about sharing my love of cycling and showing off the places I love.
Ride Leaders
Our ride leaders at Peak Gravel Gang are incredible! This group is run entirely on goodwill and volunteering so it means a great deal that our leaders believe in what we are doing enough to donate their time and energy. They are passionate about making sure every ride is a fantastic experience and are always on hand to share their knowledge and enthusiasm with others.
We aim to have at least one woman leading every ride, promoting inclusivity and representation within our community. If you’re interested in becoming a ride leader and joining our amazing team, we’d love to hear from you!
