HP2 7BA

This is the seventh in a series of rides for those just starting or returning to riding. Over the seven weeks the rides will get slightly longer helping to build distance, stamina and road awareness for new riders
.This is a steady ride, approximately 16 miles along quieter country roads. We will ride at the pace that is best suited to everyone in the group, usually between 8-10 mph. There will be a few inclines and as leaders we will support all riders to ensure that no one is left behind so that all the group can have an enjoyable ride.
We will be stopping for a short comfort/coffee break so please could you bring a lock for your bike. This will be a good opportunity to tell us how your getting along and what type of rides you would like to take part in. This is a circular route returning to our starting point at the end of the ride. If you have any questions please send a message through the website on the conversation page of this ride.

Please remember to bring,
A lock for your bike.
Two spare innertubes for your bike, even if you do not know how to change them, someone in the group will, as well as the appropriate tools (tyre levers and a spanner for your wheels if you do not have quick release.)
A water bottle with a drink in, riding can be very thirsty work.
Cycle helmet, for your own safety.
Appropriate clothing for the weather
As we will be riding on the road please consider adding lights to your bike and wearing high vis clothing to assist other road users to see you.
Money for your coffee /cake
