A beginner friendly bike ride from Victoria Embankment

Join us on a gentle and inclusive bike ride by the River Trent, Nottingham Canal, and River Leen. We will stop for a cuppa at the end of the ride at the 1881 Cafe (our treat!). We welcome women and non-binary folk of all ages, abilities and backgrounds.

This ride will be on traffic-free cycle paths and is entirely flat. We will go at a very steady pace, with a ride leader guiding the group, and a second guide at the back, so no one will be left behind. The ride will go at the pace of the slowest rider, so is suitable for those that haven't ridden for a while or are still gaining their confidence; we stop for breaks or a snack whenever you want.

You can bring your own bike, or if you need to borrow one, please contact Emily at Women in Tandem: [email protected] or 07511502741. Please let us know by Friday 15th May if you need to borrow a bike.
