Starting point

NE15 8ND

Newburn - Tyne Riverside Country Park - just opposite the Visitor Centre

This will be a leisurely, social ride, following the cycle route along the banks of the River Tyne to the Cycle Hub on Newcastle Quayside. We'll stop for tea/coffee/goodies (bring some money if you'd like refreshments) and get warmed up and then retrace our route back along to Newburn. This ride is nearly all flat and is ideal for beginners or if you've not been on your bike for a while. We will always go at the pace of the slowest rider and never leave anyone behind. Make sure you've got plenty of layers of clothing and in particular make sure your hands and feet are warm. If the weather is particularly bad (raining heavily or high winds) we can do a much shorter ride of about 6 miles to Wylam and back with a stop at French's Cafe. 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.
