Due to the vibrant cycling community that exists on the Oxford Road corridor, there are a large number of experienced cyclists who are willing and able to actively support other cyclists in their area; this could be a 1:1 ride to or from work (at an agreeable time throughout the year), or just providing some local knowledge on good routes into the University or general support.

**Many buddies also cycle in for our monthly event and welcome new and current cyclists to join them.**

You can find your nearest buddy by clicking anywhere on the map below (not all areas of GM currently covered but new buddies are being added all the time!)
