Turn the fans on, fill up your bottles and grab a towel. It’s time to #StayInWorkOut with a little bit of help from the Great Britain Cycling Team.
We’re here to help you power through the next few weeks by staying active, so we’ve enlisted the help of Team Breeze coach, Emma Trott, and her riders for a steady Saturday spin – for the technical ones amongst you, steady is 1.5 – 2w/kg in this case.
Emma will be joined by a Team Breeze rider for every virtual ride and it doesn’t matter if you’re keeping fit, young at heart, wise beyond your years, or baffled by gears - everyone is welcome to join!
We are keeping it simple and have set up this series of events just for fun, just like any other Breeze ride. We hope you enjoy this as much we think you will.

BRITISH CYCLING’S COMMITMENT TO WOMEN
British Cycling recently announced that it reached its target of getting one million more women on bikes by 2020, a cornerstone of the organisation’s ongoing ambition to reduce the historic gender gap within the sport.
In launching its women’s strategy in 2013, British Cycling set out its vision to ‘inspire one million more women to ride, race and be part of British Cycling by 2020’. Then, according to British Cycling’s market data, 550,000 women cycled on a regular basis. Since then, 1,023,271 more women have been influenced to ride a bike.
Along with the headline figure of getting one million more women on bikes, the strategy also aimed to create opportunities to ride and race, develop a pathway that keeps women engaged, get more women running the sport, get more women involved in governing the sport and increase female membership.
