Glow ride - lighting up Milton Keynes

What a night! Milton Keynes glowed for cycling.

Organised my first ever Glow Ride, campaigning for women's cycling safety.

So many riders came together for our Cycling UK  #MyRideOurRight Glow Ride — lighting up the streets, celebrating community and calling for safer redways and improved cycle routes, especially for women riding after dark.

Was interviewed by BBC 3 Counties that morning to promote the ride and similar rides taking part across the UK.

Quoting from our post ride news update -

A huge thank you to everyone who made it possible —

•  Ann Kiceluk-Shrimpton, our incredible Chair and organiser

•  Amber and Jane Whild from our Gender Pedal Gap group

•  The women ride leaders from @Broughton Cycling Group who helped make the event fun and safe for all

•  Cllr Marie Bradburn, Bicycling Mayor and MK City Councillor for your support

•  David Lewis and the team at The Parks Trust 

•  Thames Valley Police who joined us on the ride
