Hello Folks,
Viv and I have been speaking to Nes at IBIKEMCR and she's keen to start a monthly ride for women who want to start taking riding a bit more seriously. 'Ladies do Lycra' rides will take place on the last Sunday of the month and Viv and I will be helping out with routes and leading a few.
The next one takes place on Sunday 27th September with a noon meet in Unicorn Grocery Carpark, Manchester Road, Chorlton.
Would be good to see a few Wheeler's out!
More details from Nes below:
A few women from I Bike MCR Dropouts CC and the Manchester Wheelers wouldlike to ride fast with more women and so we are starting a new monthlyride. We are starting a Ladies Do Lycra ride every last Sunday of the month.
The first shall take place Sunday 27th September. Meet at Noon in UnicornGrocery Carpark, Manchester Road, Chorlton: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=unicorn+grocery&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&ie=UTF8&hl=en&sll=51.427835,3.215035&sspn=4.037660,10.983939&ei=r7WKSuqLLI2ojAfF94nxDg&cd=1&usq=unicorn+grocery&geocode=FQmILwMduUHd_w&cid=3954276283884261713&li=lmd
It is a ride for ladies only (so no testosterone fueled machismo- nooffense boys!!!!!) who want to ride as fast as they can with some otherwomen. Riding in a group can be really good for increasing speed and confidenceand fun too! We shall ride out on quiet roads where possible and explore the beautifulManchester surroundings of the Peak District, Cheshire Countryside and thePennines. The first ride is not a particularly daunting one as we want to ease people in and see what kind of rides we all want to do. It's 50 miles, mostly downhill (after one short sharp climb).
