A challenging, but mostly flat, 44 mile ride from Prestatyn sea front to Llandudno, and back, to join in with the excitement of the Tour of Britain Women! We'll set off early from Prestatyn so that we can arrive in plenty of time for the event and associated activities, and we'll head straight for the Providero Coffee House where we have a reserved space for the day to relax and refresh before moving on to other race activities. From here there will be an opportunity to join another ride if you are feeling up to tackling the magnificent Great Orme climb! This will be listed as a separate ride to join on Let's Ride (you can sign up for the Orme ride here
https://www.letsride.co.uk/rides/breeze-brings-in-the-finish-tour-of-britain-women-llandudno-breezeontour ), and will depart from the Providero Coffee House at 11:45am to set off for a loop of the Great Orme. There are some steepish parts to this route – but they are manageable and we have allowed enough time to take them at your own pace with places to stop and catch your breath and admire the view.
After descending from the Orme we will then have the unique opportunity of riding down the closed circuit finishing straight and across the Finishing Line.
Then there will be the excitement of watching the pro riders compete to win this first stage of the TOB.
After all the race activities have finished we'll head back along the coast the same way and return to Prestatyn, unless you choose to arrange a pick up or train return. Please note that there's not yet a return time for this ride - this will be worked around the Tour of Britain Women activities taking place on the day and won't be confirmed until after the race finish.
We never leave anyone behind and welcome all on our rides.
Helmets are mandatory and please remember to bring along a spare inner tube and tools for repairing a puncture. You can also either bring cash/ card to purchase something from the cafe or bring your own snacks. As this is a long summer ride please bring lots of water/ liquid and sun protection, but it's also advisable to bring along some layers as it can be cold along the coast, even in summer. Please also bring some bike lights, just in case the event goes over time and we are cycling home in the dark!
