Starting from - Porteur cafe, 210 Church Road, Hove (BN3 2DJ)

There is lots of safe bike storage inside at the back of the cafe - bring your bike in whilst you wait. There's even a track pump in the bike storage area so that you can check your tyre pressure before we set off.

Kelly runs the cafe and can offer you excellent coffee (roasted locally in Hove), a range of teas, or some freshly baked cake to fuel your ride.

Paul runs the bike workshop and can look at your bike if it's not running smoothly, or advise you on simple maintenance. BN3 2DJ

Starting point




East Sussex
BN3 2AH

This is the third ride in a series of nine between February to May, to get you ready for summer cycling holiday, sportive, or challenge ride. We go from 10 miles on the first ride to 35 miles in May.

For those that have been on our rides to Carat's cafe in Southwick and want to extend the ride a short distance, or those that have ridden to Worthing with us before but have less time available for a ride, this is just for you.

The route is flat and on seafront cycle paths and quiet roads. There is a short section that requires us to dismount our bikes and push (through the Shoreham Port locks). There can often be a strong wind with this coastal route, so be prepared for hard work into a headwind one way, then speedy return with tailwind coming back!

Once in Shoreham we will pause for refreshments in a cafe before returning the way we came.

Bring clothing suitable for the weather, money for the cafe, and roadworthy bike - please check before heading out:
Are the tyres fully inflated?
Do both brakes work?
Is the chain clean and oiled?

If you have any questions about the ride please don't hesitate to contact the ride leader Alison on 07967 094967 or [email protected]

Also, if you book a place but get delayed, please let her know so she can discuss with the other riders whether to wait for you.
