Breeze back into biking - easygoing starter ride -please read all of ride description

This is an easygoing ride for anyone who has recently taken up cycling or has just dusted off their bike from the shed and would like to build up some confidence. This will be a 12 mile ride mainly using the Stevenage Cycle tracks and quiet roads. It is mostly flat but there might be a slight undulation or two but no-one gets left behind.
This week the plan is to cycle up to the cycling cafe Spoke near Codicote for one of their famous toasties or a bit of their yummy cake

Come on any bike you feel comfortable with. Please make sure you have some cash or a card for the stop at the cafe and please bring a spare inner tube for your bike and a pump.
Also please wear a helmet.

Now for the Covid bit
although Covid restrictions have been lifted, we are asking riders to be respectful to others on the ride. Please do not ride if you have Covid symptoms or have been in contact with anyone with symptoms. Please bring a mask (for the coffee stop & if you need first aid assistance) & hand sanitiser.
