Guided Mountain Bike Rides - Thurrock Council guided rides run once per month from March until December from the Information Centre at One Tree Hill.

Road Cycling - whether you are new to cycling, returning after an absence or just looking to improve your fitness, what better place to start than with our weekly Sunday morning social / training rides. See our section on leisure cycling for full details.
