The main date for Cycling UK’s Glow Rides, part of “My ride. Our right”, is 22 October 2026. Local communities across the UK organise the rides, combining an evening together with calls for safer streets.
Rides are intended to start after dark. Most welcome everyone, although some groups may hold women-only events. Participants should therefore read their chosen ride’s details: a shared date does not mean identical participation arrangements.
The campaign also addresses everyday route design: connections separated from traffic, better lighting and visible cycle parking. It calls for women’s voices to inform infrastructure planning, making cycling more accessible during the darker months.
