About this Event

Join us for our 7 mile evening ride to Beeston Lock via The Big Track. Nice and flat, this route takes us along river paths and canal ways and is almost completely off-road.

We welcome women of all ages, abilities and backgrounds, we ride at the pace of the slowest rider and stop for breaks whenever you want.

MEETING POINT: Wilford Toll Bridge opposite the Sandwich Bar. Click here for a google pin.

TIME: meet at 5:45pm, ready to ride at 6pm.

Click here for a link to Komoot for the full route file.

You’ll be in safe hands, we’re experienced ride leaders who love cycling. Before and during the ride we will be sharing all the tips and tricks to get the most out of cycling.

This ride is organised by Women in Tandem, a Community Interest Company based in Nottingham that aims to support and empower women to ride bikes. The session is funded by The National Lottery Reaching Communities Fund.

You won’t need anything fancy, just a bike that rides, comfortable weather-appropriate clothing, water, snacks and some enthusiasm for cycling! Let us know if there is anything we can do to help enable you to join this ride.

Any questions, please get in touch we would love to hear from you.
