Join us for our social road and gravel bike ride for students in Uppsala! The tour is suitable for both beginners with some experience and advanced riders. Essentially, we’ll have a fun and active time with great conversations while biking, without any pressure to keep up or worry about the pace. However, it will still be a sporty ride.
The ride is led by our new groupride leader Ali Yildiz. The tour will go out on both main roads, cycling lanes and gravel if they are available outside the city. The avarage speed will be 20–25 km/h:ish.
Depending on weather, route and available time we will have fika break in between or fika gathering afterwards.
We meet in September and every Sunday in October 2026.
Equipment
Which type of bike do I need? The 27 September we go only on roads, so then a roadbike, gravel or hybrid is fine. In October we go on different roads it's preferable to come with a gravel bike, but you'll do fine with a sporty hybrid bike or MTB as well.
Which further equipment do I need?
- Helmet – mandatory!
- Sportswear, appropriately for the weather.
- Cash, swish or card if we stop for fika.
- Some bike nutritions (e.g. a banana) and filled bottles.
