Grit Grrrls Ride 28th November

Join us for a 34km off-road adventure, taking in woodland trails, scenic canal paths, and rolling bridleways.

We’ll start at Bramcote Hills Park, past Hemlock Stone before picking up a mix of gravel, bridleways and canal paths There are a couple of climbs and some trickier terrain, so this ride is best suited to those comfortable with off-road riding rather than complete beginners. About 28km in we’ll be stopping for a cafe stop at The Mulberry Cafe in Strelley.

Who is this ride suitable for?This ride is suitable for anyone that is comfortable riding off-road with loose gravel, uneven surfaces, and distances of over 30km and more.

With the Autumn and Winter months upon us, there are a few extremely muddy sections on this route, which can be quite challenging but fun. (if you like that sort of thing) :)
