🍃 A gentle, grounding walk through ancient woodland with plenty of time to chat, unwind and feel closer to nature.

🚴‍♀️ International Women's Day Ride - 10am-2.30pm

🌿 A 24-mile journey exploring our beautiful borough as we head to Borsdane Woods, we'll go at a pace that suits everyone with plenty opportunities to stop, rest and catch up along the way!
