Cycle your heart out this Christmas

Follow your heart
A huge thank you to all the lovely ladies that braved the cold in yesterday's Christmas Breeze ride! Despite the cold weather the sun shone brightly, and the tasty hot chocolate and mince pies were well and truly deserved!

Everyone that came along received their FREE Cycle Your Heart Out goodie bag to help them spread that festive love! Click below to view the route, and find out what goodies were in the bags!

Cycle your heart out… this Christmas!

Location
Milton Keynes, England

Heart Route
A flat 8km route, all off-road 

Cycle your heart out
The Christmas heart route took us a lovely relaxed ride around Willen Lake and onto Ouzel river. We then cycled back in time passed the famous golden dinosaur, and onto a nice gentle incline for great views of the city at Campbell Park. It was then downhill all the way back to Willen where we all celebrated with some well deserved hot chocolate and mince pies! 

Spread the love
A massive thank you to everyone who came on the ride, and all those that contributed to all the goodies in the bag!
Lush, Peace One Day, Arena, Chaineys Cycles, Crafts to Inspire, Daniel De Waal and Cotton Craft!

Lush kindly donated the divine smelling 'Friends with benefits' massage bars! Not only do they smell like chocolate orange, but they are also made with fairtrade cocoa butter! 

Cotton Craft in Milton Keynes did an such an amazing job with the bag printing! The bags they provided are all fairtrade & made by the fantastic organisation 'Whatever it Takes' who have had celebrities such as Nicole Kidman, Lilly Allen & the late Amy Winehouse design for them.

In August I organised a heart route called 'Midnight Peace ride' to help raise awareness for Peace One Day's annual day of peace. They have kindly donated some funky wristbands and badges!

Belly dancer Arena kindly made beautiful charm bracelets for each bag! I absolutely love the little bike and heart charms! Arena is currently Biker Girl of the week!

My local friendly Bicycle shop in Shenley Church End, Milton Keynes kindly donated some puncture repair kits!
