Roaring Reds

This summer I have been very lucky to meet up with a lovely group of ladies via the Sky Breeze rides.  The rides are led by Tracey who is an excellent leader and makes the rides lots of fun!

On a Thursday evening, we cycle a beautiful 15 mile route, with some interesting climbs and useful sprint stages.

I'm still once again the slowest in the group, but this time I feel that they really mean it, when they say it is OK that I am always last, plus there is a training element to these rides, so I really do feel that I am going to improve my cycling.

We also finish the ride at a local hostellerie, where we are greeted with a cheery "evening ladies, how was your ride?", it's very nice to feel so welcomed as a cyclist.

And here I have shamelessly stolen some photos from Facebook, so I can share some pictures of the great group of ladies that I have been fortunate to ride with this summer!
