BN43 5TE

The Red Lion Old Shoreham Road Shoreham by Sea

This is a first of a series of training rides, aiming to build up your stamina & strength.
A steady paced ride. The ride is on road, with some hills. Best suited to those confident to ride in traffic

From the Red Lion, Along Steynind Road (usually quiet at this time of day) to Upper Beeding, on to Fulking & Poynings.
 We'll ride up Devils Dyke, challenging but take it nice & steady, you'll be fine. Don't worry if you feel the need to stop & take a breather , no one will get left behind.
From there on it's all downhill YAY!!!
 We have to cross the A27 Flyover, then another lovely downhill, all the way to Brighton seafront, from there along the cycle route back to Shoreham.
 
.... If you live along the route feel free to leave at the most convinient point.

The ride is open to women only..but is being run alongside the regular Brighton Excelsior CC Sunday club ride, so don't be put off if you see a group of lycra clad roadies...they'll be heading the other way! It’s a good idea to bring some water, snack to keep you going and money for if we stop at a cafe. Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then.  We really welcome newcomers to our rides; we will ride at the pace of the slowest rider. Look forward to seeing you there. Don’t forget…. Breeze are on a mission to spread the word about their rides, and need your help. If you introduce one friend who goes on to take part in a Breeze ride, you’ll receive a Breeze water bottle, introduce a second friend, you’ll be the proud owner of one of their swish Breeze Buffs, and introduce a third friend and Breeze will send you £15 of Love2Shop vouchers.
