Sofa to Saddle #2 - Wyvale

Our Sofa to Saddle series is a set of six rides aimed at beginners, nervous cyclists or those who haven’t been on a bike for years. The focus of these rides is to build confidence, meet other likeminded ladies and to eat cake. These are short rides, gradually increasing in distance and we will aim to ride at 10-11mph.

Our second ride is approximately 10 miles with a cake stop half way. We will leave Newport via Longford Road and will cycle on to Wyvale Garden Centre in Donnington where we will stop for cake and tea. This flat 'out and back' route is ideal for those ladies wanting to kick start their fitness or for the more experienced, who would like something short and social. We will be on quiet country lanes and cycle paths, avoiding busy main roads and you will be supported at all times by the Breeze Champions. We will travel at the pace of the slowest rider and no one will be left behind.

Road bikes or hybrid bikes with road tyres are suitable for this ride. Please bring a spare inner tube suitable for your bike and don’t forget some pennies for the cake stop. All riders must wear a cycle helmet.
