We’ll do a quick bike check and warm up before we get started (just to make sure our knees are in working order!). The route will take us past Portinscale, Little Broughton, Broughton Crags Hotel, Maryport, Tallentire and Dearham. We’ll return using a different route. The ride is an opportunity to explore some of the quiet country lanes accessible from Cockermouth. We’ll aim to have a fun, ride at a conversational pace so no one is left behind.  We are a friendly bunch and newcomers are very welcome! You’ll be in a supportive environment and people ask questions about bikes and cycling and build up their cycling confidence and experience. There is an option to stop at the pub if you’d like to so please bring some money. It’s a good idea to bring some water and snack to keep you going. 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.  Look forward to seeing you there!
