Rutland Cycling, Bull Brigg Lane, Whitwell, Nr Oakham, Rutland

I'm a local mum and I love cycling! But I found it hard to go pedalling after having a baby. So I'm organising these traffic-free rides at beautiful Rutland Water for other Mums and tots. The rides start every Friday morning at 10.00 from the Rutland Cycling store at Whitwell. As part of their commitment to women's cycling, Rutland Cycling is offering 50% off bike hire to anyone registered on a Breeze ride who needs a bike. This means you can use a new hybrid bike, helmet and childseat for £5 if you let me know in advance. Slightly older children could use a trailer / buggy for two - bike, three helmets and a buggy is only £10. Of course it is all free with your own bike! Tots must be 12 months and over to use a hire childseat and 18 months or older to go in a buggy. The rides are very leisurely and I hope to create a friendly baby group on wheels in the great outdoors. The traffic-free waterside routes are a lovely easy ride - and partly created by my dad so I know them very well! Week by week we can grow the group and explore different lanes and maybe picnic afterwards in the future? I'm available to talk about transport options to and from Whitwell and all is planned to fit in best with the lunch needs of tots! Hope to see you soon.
