Broughton Breeze

This ride will take us out of Workington on the cycle route via Camerton, Broughton and on to Cockermouth via Papcastle where we will loop back round and return via the cycle route into Distington and back to the start. Costa Workington is just five minites from the end of the ride so we can stop there for a well earned coffee and piece of cake. The distance of this ride, coupled with the climbs we will encounter along the way mean this one is not suited to beginners. Having said that, we will not be leaving anyone behind - think of it as a challenge! Please wear suitable clothing for the conditions, and remember that the weather can be very changeable at this time of year so it is wise to carry waterproof clothing. Feet and hands can quickly get cold on the bike too so please layer up. Please wear a properly fitted helmet. I would also advise carrying a drink of some kind and perhaps a snack for nibbling on the way.
