Rides

Various organisations offer a number of rides throughout the year for cyclists in South Yorkshire; some of these rides are geared towards families (for details on these rides please see our family pages), others to adults that are just rediscovering cycling.

Breeze bike rides offer social, friendly, women-only bike rides.

So if you fancy riding a bike but feel you need a bit of support why not join them on their monthly rides, run by women for women. See their website: www.breezebikerides.com

In Rotherham, various Breeze rides have been along the Old Mineral Line at Thurcroft, to Langold Lake, along the Trans Pennine Trail from Old Moor or Conisbrough and to Chesterfield from Rother Valley Country Park. Please contact Chris by email chris.orange@sky.com or text on 07583082291 for more details.
