Cyclists came together in the new city last week for the Milton Keynes Glow ride, part of the national campaign 'My ride, Our right'.
An initiative calling for safer streets and cycling infrastructure, especially for women cycling after dark.
More than 50 Glow rides were held across the country.
Cycling Citizens MK invited riders to light up themselves and their bikes on the ride, which was organised and led by women riders. It was open to everyone and the 35 participants included Thames Valley Police Community Support Officers and city Councillor, Marie Bradburn.
“No one should be in fear when cycling. We’re lighting up the redways not just for fun, but for visibility and safety,” said organiser Ann Shrimpton of Cycling Citizens MK. “Too often women put their bikes away when the nights draw in, but we should, all of us, be able to feel safe cycling - all year round."
