Breeze Bike Rides in Preston
London 2012 has proved to be one of most significant and game-changing times for women’s cycling and we want to celebrate this unprecedented era and invite you all to Breeze in the Park. The Breeze network will be transforming Avenham Park into a bike riding haven as we encourage women to take to their bikes with friends and children and join others to celebrate this success.
Sneaky peak of what’s in store:
Meeting place – the Avenham Riverside Cafe. We'll be here from 10am - 1pm.
If you are a beginner or haven't been on your bike for a while you can come along anytime between 10am and 1pm for some practical skills, help and advice on riding a bike.
Two Breeze bike rides will be taking place at 10.30am and another one at 11.30am -both suitable for all ages and all abilities. The start point of these rides will be outside the café, and will last around 30 minutes.
Breeze tea party at Avenham Riverside Café. This is the perfect opportunity to find out about the Breeze Network and meet like-minded women. They’ll be lots of things to do to keep the children entertained and amused. We’ll provide some refreshments but perhaps might be worth bringing a few pennies if you want something more substantial from the many things on offer at the Riverside cafe.
Turning up on the day is fine, but we’d love you to register
Directions
Avenham Park is the main Park for entering the City of Preston from Ribble Valley on Route 55 via the Old tramway.This park is a central line for connecting to the new 21 mile perimeter route of the city; the 622 route- namely ‘The Guild Wheel’ - the lasting legacy to Preston Guild 2012. Beautiful paths that meander along the River Ribble and that can take you straight through to the docks in a safe cycling environment.
