Shambala are pleased to announce that once again they are teaming up with Sustrans to offer mass cycle rides from 10 UK towns and cities to the Shambala festival site.

All rides will have a guide, campsites will be pre-booked and baggage is carried by the support vehicle.  With around 30 people on each ride, it’s great fun, as witnessed by feedback from last year’s riders.  Rides are suitable for all ages.

Towns and cities  so far confirmed are :  Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester, London, Sheffield, Lechdale, Middleton Cheney, Stoke and Coventry
