Sofa to Saddle #3 - Norbury Junction

Our Sofa to Saddle series is a set of six rides aimed at beginners, nervous cyclists or those who haven’t been on a bike for years. The focus of these rides is to build confidence, meet other likeminded ladies and to eat cake. These are short rides, gradually increasing in distance and we will aim to ride at 10-11mph.

Our third ride is approximately 15 miles. We will leave Newport via Chetwynd and will cycle on to Norbury Junction for tea and cake. There are a couple of small hills, but you will be looked after by our British Cycling trained Breeze Champions. This is a great ride for someone looking to start out and gain more confidence, or for those of you who are more experienced who want a steady ride. We will travel at the pace of the slowest rider and no one will be left behind.

Road bikes or hybrid bikes with road tyres are suitable for this ride. Please bring a spare inner tube suitable for your bike and don’t forget some pennies for the cake stop. All riders must wear a cycle helmet
