During 2013 & 2014, Sustrans hosted a non-competitive social cycling group through their office hub located in the Caerphilly Visitor Centre called the Green Ladies.
The purpose of the group was to encourage women of all ages to get out and cycle! Through personal training on closed circuits and quiet lanes, we provided opportunities for individuals to improve their cycling skills and increase confidence through a relaxed and casual environment. As a Sustrans volunteer, I acted as a route planner and ride leader focusing primarily on the use of traffic-free routes on the National Cycle Network.

Sadly, the Green Ladies cycling group came to an end in December of 2014 when Sustrans closed the hub in Caerphilly. However, we shared some wonderful times together thanks to everyone involved.
