We're very excited to be running a ride as part of the Walking and Wheeling Festival again this year!

You can see more of the events they have on offer here: https://www.wawfest.com/

The friendly and welcoming Velo City Inverness team invite you to join them for a social cycle. Along the Canal Towpath from Torvean to Dochgarroch Lock.

They have bicycles and helmets available to borrow (must be pre-booked) so even if you don't have a bike you can still join this event.

Tom really thoughtfully coordinated his jacket with the gorse flowers along the canal this week. There was so much colour along the canal on our group ride. Feeling so lucky to live where we live right now!

It was a VERY wet ride last week, but exhilerating to be out. This week was a much more relaxing ride with sunshine and blue sky. Can you tell which ride is which?!

If you'd like to join in the fun please get in touch. We'd love to hear from you.

Once again we tackled the Inshes 'swoopy path' this week. Sun and no sleet! Will winter ever be over? 😅

We had a beautiful ride through Torbreck Woods yesterday with sunlight shining through the woods. Check out the menacing grey clouds at the start of the ride. Would you believe that we miraculously managed to dodge all the rain, which thundered down before and after the ride? Fantastic company, and really lovely to be out in the best of the day.

Come and join us on a ride soon! We can't guaruntee weather miracles every week but the chat is always great and the smiles are always friendly 😊

Some of our regular riders are on the cover of this!

It's a great document that helps inform active travel decisions across Inverness and the Highlands. Well worth a browse, as we discussed on our ride this week.

The Inverness Walking & Cycling Index 2025 has officially launched today at Northern Meeting Park Pavilion.

The data shows strong public support for improvements that make it easier to walk, wheel and cycle.

Each year, active travel in Inverness:
• Prevents 223 serious long-term health conditions
• Contributes £75.3m to the local economy
• Avoids 3,700 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions

This year’s report is a partnership between Walk Wheel Cycle Trust and The Highland Council, with input from residents and organisations across the city.

A huge thank you to everyone who contributed their experiences. We look forward to continuing this vital work to support healthier, greener travel choices.

Amazing to hear the impact of having an adaptive bike has had on David 😊

How times have changed since last week... a very pleasant warm ride through Inshes park this week! The swoopy path didn't disappoint as our riders conquered the hill up and enjoyed the descent down. ⛰️
