Dust your bike off and get out this summer!  Meet like-minded women and have fun on our very social Breeze bike rides.  This ride follows a fairly flat route along quiet roads to Birchfields Park and then onto Platt Fields Park. This ride is perfect for beginners and those who haven't been on a bike for a while.  There will be an opportunity to socialise at the end of the ride at the Longsight Festival. Newcomers to Breeze rides are very welcome.  It's a good idea to bring some water and you may also want to bring a snack.  Dress appropriately for the weather: in cool weather it's good to wear lots of thin layers, so you can add/remove them as needed; a rain jacket is a good idea too!  Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then. Please note all children under the age of 16 MUST wear a helmet.
