We are delighted to announce that Her Spirit has teamed with British Cycling to launch a new digital cycling club exclusively for women. As passionate cyclists, we recognise that cycling hasn't always been as accessible to women as it should be. Our goal is to change that.

From January through to 10 March we set the challenge of completing at least four Breeze and/or Guided Rides as part of Let's Ride Through Winter 2022 - and riders well and truly stepped up despite the cold, dark and dampness!

Breeze and Guided Rides are categorised into ‘easygoing’, ‘steady’ and ‘challenging’. This guide will help you decide which is best for you.
