Tyne Cycles to Fausto Coffee

We meet at the friendly local bike shop Tyne Cycles. We'll catch the ferry over to South Shields (please bring £2.70 in change for the return ferry ticket). Our seaside route has cliff top views, passing South Shields beaches and Souter Lighthouse. We'll arrive at Roker ready for a cuppa at Fausto Coffee cycle-cafe. Get a warm welcome and 10% off for arriving by bike! http://fausto.coffee/ The route is mostly on shared-use paths, but there are a couple of short stretches of road. Our pace will be more suited to ladies who have been riding over the winter, or are reasonably fit (i.e. you've ridden this sort of distance before and are comfortable with the workings of your bike!) We won't be going fast, but there can be winds off the sea that make it a little bit more of a challenge. You'll need some change for the ferry and coffee shop, a drink and a spare inner tube for your bike. Please bring a waterproof jacket, just in case. This ride is one of a new series of regular women's rides from Tyne Cycles, making the most of cycle paths and quieter roads. Any questions?
