Bradford is to host a women-only cycling event in a bid to get more girls on the saddle following Team GB’s Olympic success.
Breeze in the Park will be the first of its kind in Bradford and will transform Lister Park into a bike riding haven on Sunday, September 23. The event by British Cycling, the governing body for cycling, is inviting women, family and friends to celebrate women’s cycling.
Natalie Justice, women’s network manager for British Cycling said: “London 2012 has turned out to be the women’s games and this extraordinary and unprecedented time deserves a celebration.”
A British Cycling spokesman said: “The ride will take in the picturesque sights of this brilliant park.”
The free event is in Lister Park from 10am to 1pm. Register via breezebikerides.com, but riders on the day can also take part.
