Welcome to a Breezy Ladies B2B (Back 2 Basics) Breeze through winter Couch to Cake ride:) Following straight on from our Breeze coaching session. We will be travelling along the traffic free, fully tarmacked cycle way from Workington fire station towards High Harrington then on to Distington. From here we will travel along the cycle way to Lowca & take in the views of Whitehaven before turning back to retrace our route to Distington. Here is where we will stop at Starbucks for our "alfresco" outdoor take away hot drinks & cake break with the chance to use the toilet facilities before travelling back by the same route to end up back at the Fire station car park. These are a set of 4 beginner's rides especially for ladies only to take part in following on from our coaching session. Especially designed for ladies interested in doing more leisure cycling, as this ride is led by an experienced British Cycling Breeze trained coach. So, if you have any questions or concerns about attending, need any advice or just some help starting or getting back into that saddle for this ride just message the ride leader on the riders' tab below. As B2B ladies we will be travelling at the slowest rider's speed with support and encouragement, so no one is ever left behind. Please bring with you a road worthy bike, your helmet, clothes you are comfortable cycling in, easy to add or remove layers work the best, a waterproof jacket, as you never know. A drink for along the way if needed, a mask, contactless card or some money for our café stop. A hand pump and inner tube that fits your bike is always a good idea. Please do not attend if you have any Covid symptoms, have someone in your household who does or if you have tested positive on a recent Covid test. Cancelling your place isn't a problem, just so that we are not waiting for you unnecessarily especially when it's cold or raining.

All new lady E-Bike riders are especially welcomed.
