Aims

Cycle Carlisle aims to make cycling in Carlisle safe, convenient and popular. We hope to encourage people to use cycling as part of their normal daily transport and turn Carlisle into a progressive cycle-friendly City.

Manifesto

This manifesto has been drawn up by members of "Cycle Carlisle" to record the improvements that we wish to see for cycling in Carlisle. It is designed to reflect the wishes of all who cycle in Carlisle, and especially those who wish to cycle more. Read more

Events

Cycle Carlisle aim to organise events that promote cycling throughout the city. Past events have included mass bike rides and a mini cycle festival in the centre of Carlisle last year. There are also regular rides out into the surrounding countryside as well as various campaigns, meetings and film screenings.

Once again the 3rd Saturday of the month is approaching and so it is time for our group social ride.  This Saturday (21st June), our ride coincides with the Cumbria Diversity Carnival.  This gives us another opportunity to stand out and promote cycling as an everyday means of transport and so we will take part in the carnival.  The details for the day are as follows:

2nd Meeting Point:     Old Fire Station (Warwick Street) for 11:15.

For those who can’t make it this weekend our subsequent ride will take place on 19th July which will revert to your usual circuit of the city centre.
