Breeze Morpeth to Bolam Lake in search of Constance Lewthart

This ride is one of a series of rides which are a collaboration between Cycle With Jan and Breeze Women Only bike rides - our aim is to support and get more women cycling in the north east! However this is a more challenging ride as this route is inspired by Constance Lewthart, notable woman aviator - our ride will take her childhood home in Low Angerton west of Morpeth (and not easy to get to!)

Fun, fun, fun with like minded women and spread the word…whats not to like!

The route goes out of Morpeth and heads to Throphill and Hartburn before turning south to head to Bolam Lake for coffee before returning to Morpeth through Meldon and Molesden. This is a more challenging ride with plenty of climbing and an average speed of over 11mph!

The route goes out and back of Morpeth past the golf club but turns onto country roads once we have been under the A1! So the roads will be busier at the beginning and the end.

Refreshment stop at Bolam Lake

Riders must have a helmet and should bring a spare inner tube for their own bike, water bottle and a snack and cash for a coffee or two.

Breeze is always encouraging new people to join but this ride is more challenging so please only sign up if you know you can manage the distance and speed comfortably or get in touch if you want to chat about it.
