The route has a couple of gradual inclines, but you are welcome to walk and we will wait at the top for everyone to catch up, so don't let it put you off!
This gentle ride is aimed at women who are new to group cycling or who have not been cycling recently and wish to regain confidence.

Starting from Harpenden Cycles we will head out via Nomansland to Osprey's for a coffee stop before looping back to Southdown

We will be mainly on country lanes with a couple of very short sections of busier roads.

We will stop for a coffee at Osprey

Rides are a little different to pre covid. We will be cycling in smaller groups (max 6 including leaders) and will ride so that we are maintaining appropriate physical distancing. (2m in single file or 1m+ if doubled up) You will need to bring 2 spare inner tubes and any equipment you would need to change them (pump; tyre levers). In order to maintain social distancing we are not able to help out with any mechanical problems at the moment or share equipment so please ensure your bike is in good working order, and that you have a contact number for someone (or taxi) who can pick you up if you have a mechanical problem you are unable to deal with. We won’t abandon you but our ability to help is limited. Helmets are compulsory on this ride and you also must carry a mask (you do not need to wear it whilst cycling but may need it for the coffee stop or if you require first aid assistance). Please also bring a small bottle of sanitiser for personal use. Apologies for this long list of rules, but it is really important to us to keep both riders and leaders safe and once the logistics are out of the way we can get on and enjoy the ride in the knowledge that we are doing it as safely as we possibly can!

First-timers welcome!
