Let's do a hill

This ride is aimed at women who cycle regularly (not beginners) and who are wanting to challenge themselves/get practice on hills. The ride begins with a very short section on the Monsal Trail before joining a quite country road with a long gradual uphill. It's not a race and the idea is to get practice at climbing uphill so we will select a comfortable gear and slowly make our way up. If necessary, we can get off and push. Our reward is a steep descent down part of Longstone Edge so we get to practice our downhills too. Good working brakes are essential! We will then rejoin the Monsal Trail to return to the cafe. Please make sure you have layers because you may need to remove one on the way up. Also don't forget to bring a drink, snack and some money for the cafe. Also, spare inner tube, puncture repair kit. Hope you can make it. Any questions then please contact me via Breeze Network Derbyshire facebook page.
