Fishponds to Warmley - Beginners Ride

Come and join us for a short, gentle and social ride out to Warmley Waiting Room café along the Bristol to Bath Railway Path. We’ll start from the Mi Café Su Café coffee van, opposite the car park entrance to Morrisons in Fishponds. We’ll pass the old Mangotsfield station platform along the way on this smooth, traffic-free path.

There is car parking on the side streets around the start point.
There are toilets near the start point (in Morrisons) and at Warmley Waiting Room café.

The route is mainly flat though there will be a couple of short inclines on the way back - we’ll take it steady and can always get off and push - we never leave anyone behind.

Please wear a helmet and bring a spare inner tube. You may also like to bring the following:
A lock for when we stop at the café
Money for refreshments
Clothing appropriate for the weather

This ride is perfect for beginners, new to cycling, those looking to gain a bit more confidence or returning to cycling after a long break.
