The Route
We’ll spin three Ballet loops through the park, roll up Sawyers, exit via Kingston Gate, then cruise down King’s Road to the shop.
It’s a scenic, beginner-friendly loop with enough kick to wake you up and enough chill to keep it social.

Coffee & Pastry Special – £1 refills, £2 for a pastry with your coffee.

Group Ride
Start your Friday off right. With fresh air, good people, and better coffee.
Friday Chat Laps is a relaxed, pre-work social ride looping through Richmond Park and finishing at our shop café for well earned coffee and pastries.
Whether you're a solo rider looking to find your crew, new to cycling, or just in it for the £1 coffee refills, this one’s for you.
No pressure. No drop. No ego. Just laps, laughs, and lattes.

Who's It For?
Absolutely everyone.
If you’ve never done a group ride, this is the best place to start.
If you usually train solo, this is a great way to mix it up.
If you love bikes, coffee, and community — you're in the right place.
After the Ride: The Exchange Café
Following the ride, we will head to The Exchange Cafe. This will be a casual opportunity to relax and socialise over a coffee. Engage with riders further and showcase space.
