Starting point

NE26 4RS

St Mary's Lighthouse, North Tyneside You'll need money for parking your car there.

We'll follow the coastline and NCN1 Coast n Castles route through Whitley Bay, Cullercoats, Tynemouth and North Shields to the ferry. Cross the river Tyne by the ferry (bring money for fair) and continue along the NCN1 3Rivers route to Souter Lighthouse, possibly stopping en route at a lovely cafe at Westhoe. Return by same or similar route back to St Mary's Lighthouse by the ferry. This is a challenging ride and I expect we'll be doing 10+ miles an hour. Please make sure your bike is roadworthy, lubricated and tyres are well inflated, bring suitable weather gear and water. We'll be stopping for refreshments Don’t forget…. 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.
