Breeze Summer evening Aykley Heads and Brasside
Thurs 22nd May 2025 7pm 6 miles
Start Gala Theatre DH1 1WA
Join us for this short ride which is part of our weekly summer series of Thursday evening starter rides in the Durham area during May, June and July. These rides are suitable for those new or returning to cycling to build up confidence and stamina over the weeks, while enjoying the summer evenings and good company.
During May we’ll cover the flattest and shortest routes and as the weeks go by the miles and hills (can’t be avoided around Durham) will increase.
Doing as many of the rides as possible is recommended to reap the greatest benefits.
The ride is most suitable for hybrid bikes as it is a mix of surfaces. We will be heading up past the DLI and to Newton Hall to do a loop round the back of the prison to discover the delightful maze of off-road routes north of the city centre. This is a bit of a hilly ride but worth the challenge for the sense of satisfaction, the downhill at the end and one of the best cathedral views.
In order for the ride to leave promptly, please be punctual so we can carry out bike checks, etc. prior to us setting off. Please make sure your bike is in working condition and bring a spare tube to fit your tyres. We should be riding for about an hour and an half and there will be the option to stop for a cuppa/drink once back in town.
As always we can’t predict the weather so please dress suitably. You may well need gloves and a buff/snood to keep your neck warm. Please come with bike lights in case light conditions are dreary.

We look forward to meeting you.
