Meet the Ride Leaders

  • Vicky Loftus Vicky Loftus Hi I'm Vicky, I'd love for you to come and join me on a Breeze bike ride.
    I enjoy travelling around on my bike, on and off road, around Lincolnshire, the joy of getting out there and breathing the fresh air, taking in the views is always rewarding, so why not give it a try.
    A gentle pace is always good to get to know people and no one ever gets left behind.
    Look forward to meeting you.
  • David Evans I'm passionate about getting more people to experience the wonders of cycling. The freedom, the scenery, the friendships, the challenges, the physical and mental health supporting properties and the other features that make cycling a rewarding 'way of life'.

    New and returning riders sometimes need to build confidence to ride with other users of our roads, tracks and where applicable, paths. I'd like to help riders develop their confidence so they can fully enjoy their cycling; whatever form it may take.
