Women’s mountain bike ride for beginners - Heath Week special

Women’s mountain bike ride - Beginners welcome

Start place: Family festival site, Woodbury Castle, Woodbury Common

Enjoy the freedom of cycling without traffic! Woodbury Common offers a wide choice of terrain with views to sea and moor.

 This guided mountain bike ride for women is aimed at those who are new to riding off road. The pace will be gentle, but this part of Devon is not flat, so you need a good basic level of fitness to get up the hills.



The ride will be led by Cathy Debenham, a British Cycling accredited mountain bike leader. She will show you the best tracks and offer tips and tricks to help you improve your riding skills and boost your confidence. To come on this ride you must be confident riding a bike on the road or smooth off-road tracks and fit enough to complete the ride at a steady pace.

Cost: At the special Heath Week discounted rate of £10 per person (maximum 8 people)

To join the ride you will need a mountain bike (hybrids are not suitable) and a helmet that fits properly, has a CE mark and is in warranty. For more information see our full terms and conditions.
