Starting point

W2 2UH

Black Lion Gate, Hyde Park

Regular beginner rides through Kensington and Chelsea for anyone thinking about getting into cycling, nervous about where to begin or who wants to meet fellow cyclists in the area. The routes will vary but will be suitable for novice and intermediate cyclists on quieter roads and cycle paths where possible. If you'd like to try a particular route (for example, to try out a commute) then just let me know and I'll try to accommodate it. You'll recognise me wearing a bright red Breeze jacket. Any questions just drop me a line! This month's route goes through Hyde Park: We meet at 11am at Hyde Park's Black Lion Gate - that's the one just outside Queensway tube station. The postcode is a very rough guide to how to get there. Hyde Park is an excellent place to start getting into cycling and a good introduction to different kinds of paths, including shared-used with pedestrians, painted paths on roads and pavements, and some on-road cycling on reasonably quiet and wide roads. If you decide you want to keep cycling but are worried about road safety, join the London Cycling Campaign, which campaigns for better cycling infrastructure throughout the city. Breeze are on a mission to spread the word about their rides, and need your help. If you introduce one friend who goes on to take part in a Breeze ride, you'll receive a Breeze water bottle, introduce a second friend, you'll be the proud owner of one of their swish Breeze Buffs, and introduce a third friend and Breeze will send you £15 of Love2Shop vouchers.
