Breeze Hollybush Loop

This is one of my favourite rides with a great cafe en-route. It's a bit of a hilly ride, exploring the countryside around Broomley and Slaley. Most of the ride is on quiet country roads but there are some busier sections of road too, particularly near the end of the route. There are some short sections with steep hills and longer stretches of undulating terrain. It's suitable for you if: - you have been doing flatish rides of about 20 miles and you're ready for something a bit more challenging. - you are confident with your gears and your brakes. - you have a reasonable level of fitness but you lack confidence cycling on the road. - you are a confident cyclist but you'd like a social ride and you don't mind a bit of starting and stopping. - you like cake! You will need: - a spare inner tube - a snack and a drink - some money for a soup/cake stop at Hollybush coffee shop - I'll be having both! A helmet is recommended but not compulsory. We always cycle at the speed of the slowest rider and never leave anyone behind - don't worry about the hills - it's a great work-out!
