Gentle jaunt - easy ride

New to cycling?
Not been out on your bike for a while?
Feeling very rusty?
Don’t like cycling on main roads?
Not fit?

This is the perfect ride for you – a gentle, jaunt in the evening, with a couple of manageable hills. We will cycle out on the cycle path along the river and Hockley viaduct and onto the road to Compton with our first hill up to the bridge over the motorway. Following a lovely downhill stretch through Shawford and Twyford on quiet, country lanes, we go up our last hill before a short section on the main road and back along the cycle path into Winchester. We will ride as a group on any busy road. Everyone is welcome; we will cycle at a very gentle pace and no-one will be left behind.

This is part of a series of beginner rides on every Monday in June. Look out for others and join us on one of those if you’re not free for this one.

Things to bring:
Please ensure you have the right clothing for the weather
A drink
A spare inner tube and pump just in case of a puncture
Lights are advisable if returning at dusk
