Ever wondered what Salisbury Plain looks like?  Not had the chance to go and explore one of England’s most beautiful open areas?  What about the rules of cycling on military land?  Come and join me on one of the few days when Salisbury Plain is open to the public.  The traffic free tracks are mostly gravel and good going and are really only suitable for mountain bikes and sturdy hybrids.  The ride will give you amazing views of not only Salisbury Plain but also the Pewsey Vale and beyond.  Although the Plain is hilly we will not lose anyone.  Expect to be out for 90 mins max. Please bring your own refreshments we will stop to refuel along the way.  You are also advised to bring an extra layer as it can be windy and chilly out on the Plain. Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then.  We really welcome newcomers to our rides; we will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. Look forward to seeing you there. Don’t forget…. Breeze are on a mission to spread the word about their rides, and need your help. If you introduce one friend who goes on to take part in a Breeze ride, you’ll receive a Breeze water bottle, introduce a second friend, you’ll be the proud owner of one of their swish Breeze Buffs, and introduce a third friend and Breeze will send you £15 of Love2Shop vouchers.
