Let's watch England's womens football team play Montenegro in the World Cup Qualifier at the Brighton & Hove Albion Amex stadium! Free ticket for the match if you book a place on this ride!   We want to get as many women  supporting women's sport by joining us at the match and riding with us there and back. We'll have the fabulous Brighton Bike Train escorting us all the way too, so we'll create a buzz in Brighton as we pedal through the city and out on the Lewes Road.   Most of the route uses cycle paths, and we're hoping for a large group (a bit of a mass ride out!), so you'll be well protected from the city traffic. The pace will bve slow and gentle and the route is flat. It's 5 miles from Preston Park to the Amex Stadium, so the total round trip will be 10 miles(we'll ride back into town together after the match).   The kick-off is at 12:55 so leaving Preston park at 11:00 should give us plenty time to get a drink and soak up the atmosphere oncve we're at the stadium.   Bring a good quality lock for your bike as we'll be locking them outside the stadium when we go in for the match. Also bring money for a programme or drink at the stadium.       If you want to know about the match, follow this link: http://www.thefa.com/news/england/womens/2014/feb/brighton-hove-albion-to-host-montenegro-world-cup-qualifier-april - See more at: http://www.goskyride.com/Search/Details?eventid=38827#sthash.dh46S94x.dpuf
