Hop on your bikes this Easter to explore Swindon’s cycle paths with a free cycle
orienteering challenge!
Back by popular demand, Swindon Cycle Campaign have organised the event to encourage people to explore their local area by bike.
With a cycle orienteering map you can navigate your way around Swindon on traffic-
free cycle paths and discover so much more from the saddle of your bike.
As part of a group or as an individual you can choose between 1, 2 or 3 hour rides
(must be finished by 3pm).
Collect orienteering points along the way and hand your points cards in at the checkpoint when you finish – prizes awarded for the three highest scores in each time category.
All you need is a roadworthy bike, but we have volunteers on site to check it’s
safe to ride. We also recommended that you carry a pump and a spare inner tube
or puncture repair kit just in case!
Lydiard Park are kindly hosting the event and cakes and refreshments will be
available from the Stable Café.
They’ll be lots on site to enjoy if your legs are tired from cycling. Come along and find out how easy it is to get around Swindon by bike.
Attendees are encouraged to travel to the start by bike. If you are coming
by car Lydiard Park charges £4.00 per day for parking.
Swindon Cycle Campaign is the voice for cycling in Swindon. A voluntary group
working to make Swindon a better place for everyone to enjoy by bike.
