Southampton City Explorer

This ride is part of the Ride Series exploring Southampton. All rides start from outside the Cowherds pub on the Common - look for me in a Red Breeze top. This ride is ideal for beginners as we will go at the pace of the slowest rider and we never leave anyone behind.

Summer evenings are the perfect time to go exploring the city when the city is quieter. I cycle through the city a lot and wanted to share some these routes which really useful to know. We will explore different routes through the series covering various areas of central Southampton including St Marys, Shirley and Lordswood. Each route will take approx 60-90minutes not including a stop at for a drink or snack. The routes are a mix of cycle paths and roads, which may vary in traffic volume.

Dress for the weather, and don't forget bring a spare inner tube, drink and money for our refreshment stop. Any questions, just ask Breeze Leader Jenny.

It will be a mix of cyclepaths and road cycling, trying to stay to the quieter routes in the city.
