Wear It Red - Cossington Meander

Saturday 23rd February at 1.00pm This is what time the ride will set off. It’s best to get to the starting point at least 15 minutes beforehand to avoid missing the start.

Starting Point & Postcode
Cossington St Sports Centre Cossington St LE4 6JD
Overall Duration On a long ride, it’s sometimes good to have a little break in the middle, or maybe a catch up at the beginning or end to keep it sociable. This means that the overall ride duration may be longer than the actual cycling time.
2 hours 0 mins  (1 hours 0 mins cycling)
Bike Type You probably don’t want to drag your road bike across bumpy trails. Maybe you want to make the most of the suspension on your mountain bike. This helps you match your ride to your bike.

  • Linda Goddard Linda Goddard Hello,
    I am passionate about encouraging people to get on their bikes. I see Breeze rides and Local Skyrides as a way to do this and to provide fun at the same time. I particularly want to encourage more women to get in the saddle!
    Cycling is not only a way to get fit, but is also good for the environment. Think of the petrol saved!
    It is also a social activity, where you can make new friends and be encouraged along by other riders.
    My aim is to support both new and returning cyclists to gain the confidence to cycle more often.
    I look forward to meeting you on the rides.

  • Lindsey Ball Lindsey Ball I got back into cycling after completing the Sky Ride in 2011 - I really enjoyed cycling around a traffic free town, and after the event… I was hooked! After the taking part in the Sky Ride I started participating in local Breeze bike rides, and through cycling with Breeze ladies, I have made some lovely friends, found cycle routes and paths (and coffee shops) that I didn't know existed and I now ride my bike regularly both for pleasure and exercise as often as I can. Last year I became a Breeze Champion myself and I've led several Breeze rides since. I like nothing better than to get out and about on my bike, and as my friends will tell you, I love to encourage others to get on their bikes too.
