Greystoke Village Car Park

Join us for a 15 mile ride from Greystoke near Penrith. We will cycle on quiet country lanes and bike paths and this ride is suitable for all bike types. We will leave Greystoke and cycle through the small hamlets of Hutton, Bennethead and Wreay before reaching Dacre. From here we will cycle to Stainton and Newbiggin before returning to Greystoke. We will have stunning views of the Lakeland Fells, Ullswater and the Pennines. This is quite a hilly ride so may not be suitable for beginners. We will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. The aim of the ride is to have a fun sociable ride in the company of other women, build up confidence in our riding in a supportive group environment, as well ask questions about bikes and riding, and make links with others. Remember to wear clothes that are comfortable to cycle in and suitable for the weather conditions. It is a good idea to bring a spare inner tube, a waterproof jacket, a snack and a bottle of water. We always recommend that you wear a cycle helmet. If you have any questions about this ride then you can e mail us at [email protected] or see our Facebook pages for more information:
