Starting point




Somerset
BS41 9JN

A steady mainly level ride following Festival Way, which is a mostly traffic free route through Ashton Court, Long Ashton and Flax Bourton, with views of the countryside, then across Backwell common before ending in Nailsea, where we will stop for refreshments and a chat before returning to Ashton Court. 16 miles. Suitable for hybrids, road bikes and mountain bikes.

Please wear a helmet, bring a spare inner tube/puncture repair kit and something waterproof to wear if rain is forecast plus money for the coffee stop and a bike lock. Please make sure tyres are fully inflated - low tyre pressure makes cycling hard work!

This is a Breeze ride for women only. We will go at the pace of the slowest rider and we never leave anyone behind.
