Midsummer Breeze Madness - 1200’ in 12 miles
Thursday 27th June 6.45pm 12 miles
Start Clayport Library DH1 1WA
We’ve set ourselves a challenge to devise and ride a ridiculously hilly route to include some of the city’s most iconic peaks ie Wharton Park battlements, Windmill Hill at St Aidan’s and the Josephine Butler mound. It isn’t a ride for the faint hearted and will include Framwellgate Peth, Back Western Hill, Redhills Lane, Cardiac Hill (science site) and a few other up and downs.
So,a strenuous short ride and only recommended for confident riders.
Any type of bike will do the job as we will largely be on tarmac with just a short section of ‘dust’ path.
Please come suitably dressed for the weather conditions as we can never be quite sure what to expect.
For any last minute cancellations on the day please text 07493808927 (note this phone is only for the day of the ride) otherwise use the option to cancel when you log in to letsride.co.uk.
In order for the ride to leave promptly, please be punctual so we can carry out bike checks, etc. prior to us setting off. Make sure your bike is in working condition and bring a spare tube to fit your tyres. We should be out for about 2 and a half hours but as always it is difficult to be precise about timing.
Hope you can join us for a fun and friendly ride. If you want any more information email us at
