This is an 18 mile route on cycle paths and road starting from Ambleside. We will begin by riding to Wray Castle mainly on the cycle path. From here we will cycle along Windermere. At the end of the lakeshore path we will ride on the road to Hawkshead. At Hawkshead we will pick up the cycle path back to Ambleside.
A mountain bike or hybrid with off road tyres is essential for this ride due to the nature of the off road sections.
We will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. This ride is not suitable for beginners. Our aim is for everyone to enjoy their ride and have a fun sociable ride in the company of other women, build up confidence in our riding in a supportive group environment, as well as ask questions about bikes and riding, and make links with others.
Remember to wear clothes that are comfortable and suitable for the weather to cycle in. It is a good idea to bring a spare inner tube, waterproof jacket, a bottle of water and a snack. We always recommend that you wear a cycle helmet.
