Breezing to Tootsies

we leave our start point and head along cycle paths to penwortham, we pick up cycle ways at Howick cross and then set out on the quiet lanes through Longton and Hutton to reach our cafe stop at Walmer bridge. Following our break we join cyclepaths that take us back to our start point in Avenham park. This is a gentle introduction to road riding.

This is an route aimed at women who wish to try out riding on roads.

the majority of the route will be on cycle paths but there will be a section on very quiet country lanes to allow you to experience riding on the roads. This is a flat route.

we will stop at Tootsies in walmerbridge for coffee or maybe some icecream

Please bring some water, a snack and some money if you wish to purchase food or drink at the coffee stop. Be prepared forwarm/ wet weather conditions. Riders are advised to wear a helmet and it is compulsory for those under 18 to wear a helmet. Please carry a spare inner tube and tools necessary to carry out a puncture repair Prior to the start of the ride there will be a short bike check and safety brief but please make sure that your bike is in working order before joining the ride. we aim to achieve an average of 8mph.

This is small friendly group who enjoy cycling along the scenic paths of Preston and south Ribble. We never leave anyone behind
