A great ride that takes in the entire sweep of the bay. Starting from Bournemouth Pier, we then head towards exclusive Sandbanks. We'll get a different perspective as we turn around at the end of the promenade to head all the way to the Hengitsbury end. It's lovely sea views all the way as we turn back to Bournemouth Pier for some well-earned refreshment.
