FRIENDS FOR LIFE!

A few months prior to this picture being taken these ladies didn't know each other. We came together through cycling having met thanks to Breeze, the biggest programme ever to get more women into riding bikes for fun.

To any apprehensive solo adventure seekers, like me before this trip, please just go for it. Humans bond over shared experiences combined with a universal need for social connection and it is heart warming to see this take place in a world where there is currently so much uncertainty and conflict.

Seeking out new connections restores our faith in humanity.

Hope all our lovely followers at Seafern Adventures are having a great weekend!

Just back from a glorious 40 miler in the sunshine. I followed this up with 20 minutes of cyclist focused yoga 🧘‍♀️ and I’m ready to start the cleaning 🧹 🧽🧼 (That’s something you don’t hear me say very often 🤣)

Thanks to Karen Shackleton for leading a great Breeze ride 🙏As ever it was good to get out, catch up and get some miles in. Fab to bump into the Harrogate ladies at the cafe with the best views. If you have never visted The Tea Cottage at Bolton Abbey you must, because it's the only tearoom with a view of the historic Priory. The building is a quintessential English cottage and over 200 years, plus the cakes and service are exceptional 🚴🍰

LADIES, ARE THESE YOUR TOP 5 CYCLING HOLIDAY MUST HAVES?

1. Guided rides at a comfortable pace
2. Social connection and down time
3. Local knowledge, views and places of interest
4. Great, healthy and plentiful food
5. The opportunity to build confidence and improve bike skills

Many women prefer a women-only tours, where they can build confidence, ask questions, and learn new skills without pressure to keep pace with mixed-gender groups. The desire to go at one's own pace and not feel rushed or like they are holding up the group is a common need.

A fulfilling holiday often includes downtime for relaxation and comfortable beds are an essential.
Opportunities to connect with like-minded women and form new friendships can greatly enhance the holiday.

P.S. We think our Cycling Holiday in the Yorkshire Dales ticks all the boxes 😉

GOOD MORNING!

I hope you managed to catch a bit of elusive blue sky this week. I spotted a promising forecast for Thursday, juggled my calendar and posted a last minute Breeze Ride.

I'm sure you will agree, it's always great to get out, but sunshine and good company makes a great ride extra special. 🚴😀🌞

P.S. the second picture is not so good as I have my eyes closed, but look at that sunbeam!

WE NEVER TIRE OF THIS VIEW!

This route takes us from the 70 metre (230ft) high, gently curving cliff of white limestone at Malham Cove down into the pretty ancient market town of Settle. Its name derives from the Old English word 'Setl' meaning a seat, an abode or a dwelling - probably because of its lofty setting in the Yorkshire Dales. You may have ridden this road in reverse if you have ever cycled from Morcambe to Bridlington on the Way of the Roses Coast to Coast.

However, we think this is the way to do it if you love flying down hills whilst taking in views like this one.

There are a just 2 dates with availability left in 2026 on this Cycling Holiday in the Yorkshire Dales 😀🚴

28th Aug - 31st August, 2026 Weekend
7th Sept - 11th September, 2026 Midweek (just 1 place left)

Don't miss out, book your place on our website or send us a message.

LADIES, WHY DO YOU CYCLE? 🚴🧘

I cycle because it makes me feel alive, but Yoga makes me feel 10 years younger.

For years I focussed purely on aerobic fitness through running and cycling. However, during menopause I found the cardio workouts didn't help my stress levels. Searching for a solution I stumbled upon my first Yoga class which was a version of Ashtanga 💪 and it really helped. My arms nearly buckled under me on the 7th downward dog, but over time my muscles got stronger and the practice reset my mind and my muscles.

Today I find the combination of both helps me to find balance and this is one of the reasons we will be offering Yoga on our 2026 holidays.

P.S. I can't promise it will make you feel 10 years younger, but what if it does?
