Birkenshaw Barr outside the Barbers at the bottom of Old Lane

This ride is intended for any ladies that would like to venture out on to the roads, but are feeling a little anxious. We will ride along local roads, which will be relatively quiet on a Sunday morning. There will be traffic around, so you must be confident at riding a bike. I will lead the bike from the rear and I will be giving clear instructions during the route. We will ride at an avearge of 8mph for 10 miles. We will be cycling up to Drighlington, which will incorporate some hills, although there is no shame in getting off and pushing. Once in Drigh we will cyle along Hodgson Lane and then Drighlington Moor and finishing near the Brickworks before returning.   It is my intention that once we have an established group that are happy on the roads we will extend the ride. Bring some change with you and we can call at a cafe for a cuppa and a slice of cake.   Plus if anybody wants further road training there are many excellent bikeability courses available - just let me know.   Wearing a helmet is advisable, especially on the roads.   All you need is a roadworthy bike and a bit of enthusiasm. It does help to bring a spare inner tube - just on case!   My contact number is 07734457411 I look forward to seeing you. Kind regards   Nicki
