This summer has been the most significant and game-changing time for women’s cycling and we think it's just incredible. We want you to help us celebrate this unprecedented era so we’re inviting you all to join us for a ride. We’d love for you to join us with friends and children and celebrate the success of our GB cycling women at a Breeze in the Park event/ride.  Starting from Derwenthaugh Park we will follow the cycle path down to the Tyne, travelling along the Gateshead side of the river, past the Metro Centre and down to Gateshead Quays. We'll cross over the Millennium Bridge and meet up with other Breeze cyclists at the Cycle Hub http://www.thecyclehub.org/ for cake, coffee and chat. We'll head back along the north side of the river, via the Business Park and Scotswood Bridge. This will be a leisurely ride of about 12 miles mainly on cycle path and nearly all flat, perfect for beginners or if you've not been on a bike for a while. We’ll always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. We really welcome newcomers to our rides. 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.  It's a good idea to bring some water and you may also want to bring a snack.  We might stop in a cafe so please bring some money and if the weather is bad a waterproof. Look forward to seeing you there!
