New Year - New Format  - New Races - New Meeting Point 

Welcome to the Lysty Trail Blazers for 2026.

We are excited to spend time with you learning new skills, riding the fabulous Lysty trails, having some dress-up theme days and having a go at some timed racing this year.

Format: Our ride will start with a 30 minute skills session taken by qualified coaches. This will be followed by a trail ride of 1.5hrs. Our ride is open to all abilities (rides may be longer or shorter depending on the riders). Any groups we split off into will be "no drop" and we'll meet up at any junctions for a chat - This is a nice cruisy social ride. After the ride we have time to share our adventures over fruit and drinks.
