Bay Cycles Berry Breezy - Torbay

Aimed at those wanting to do a longer Breeze Ride, this is a challenging ride taking us from Bay Cycles, St Marychurch down to Torquay harbour and along the sea front to Hollicombe Park. From here we will make our way along Preston and Paignton seafront to Goodrington before heading out to Churston. From Churston we will drop down to Brixham harbour before winding our way up to the beautiful views of Berry Head. After taking advantage of some refreshments at the Guardhouse cafe, (please bring some pennies with you) we will retrace our route to Windy corner Churston. From there we will pick up the designated cycle route to Paignton Zoo. At this point we will need to negotiate one of the busier sections of the route before rejoining quieter roads back to Paignton seafront. From Paignton we will follow the main coast road to Torquay before making our way back to Bay Cycles via Meadfoot and the Lincombes. This is a challenging ride so a good level of fitness is required. Wearing a helmet is recommended but if you don't have one you can still join in. Please bring plenty to drink and a spare inner tube (just in case).  High visibility clothing and lights are always a good idea even in the daytime Parking is available at the nearby council run car park at Chilcote Close opposite Bay Cycles where charges apply although there is some street parking close by.
