Love To Ride

Over the past month, Love to Ride Derby in a collaboration with local filmmaker Hardy D. Saleh have produced this brilliant short video, that brings together your stories of cycling in Derby at this extraordinary time.

From fewer cars to freedom, you told us what cycling during lockdown has been like for you and what your new normal looks like on two (or more!) wheels.

We’re delighted to release this exciting short video that captures your experiences and will hopefully encourage others to cycle too.

Be sure to like, share and spread the word. Thank you Hardy D. Saleh Life Cycle Derby Cycle Derby Sustrans East Midlands
