Red Squirrel Ride

Sunday 4 July 2027

THE RED SQUIRREL RIDE

Explore the Isle of Wight by bike to support the Island Animal Centre. Unlike many challenge events, the Red Squirrel Ride is largely traffic-free, making extensive use of the Island’s extensive network of old railway paths and cycle trails.

​

Choose between three circular routes – 16, 35 & 50 miles. The shorter route is ideal for families and new cyclists, whilst the longer options add extra challenge and a few more hills.
