Starting point

LS15 0AE

Temple Newsam, Temple Newsam Road, off Selby Road Leeds, LS15 0AE Meet at the entrance gate, on the grass by the ice cream van in the main free large car park.

Before we start we’ll do a quick bike check and warm up.   We’ll set off from Temple Newsam and ride through the estate.  There will be a mixture of tarmac, bridle and cycle paths. Most will be on level ground but if the weather permits and it's not too muddy, it will include an uphill section (can be walked if for those less energetic).  When we reach the top we can take in the good views of Temple Newsam House.  We can stop for a coffee and cake at the cafe on site. Due to the distance covered the ride is not recommended for children under 8 years of age.  Newcomers to Breeze rides are very welcome.  It's a good idea to bring some water and you may also want to bring a snack. Dress appropriately for the weather: in cold weather it's good to wear lots of thin layers, so you can add/remove them as needed; a pair of warm gloves and warm socks may also be useful. Wearing a helmet is advisable, though not essential. Please bring some money with you if you’d like to buy refreshments in the cafe. We’ll look forward to seeing you there! Wendy and Angela
