Plan your day out

Sort out food and drink:

Take a packed lunch or picnic – don't forget the blanket
Remember snacks and drinks for on the way (but remember to stop, never snack on the move!)
Share the load between you – one big rucksack or shoulder bag will be heavy and unsafe. It is a lot easier to carry a little each or use panniers on your bike!

Return home safely:

Take a route map with you
Remember to take your mobile phone in case of emergency (but never use it while cycling)
Make sure everyone wears the right clothes both for protection and the weather
Take bike locks
Head back in time to arrive home in daylight, if possible.
