When I\u2019m not out visiting, or writing about fab homes, if time allows, I\u2019ll hop on my road bike and cycle around gorgeous West Sussex \u2013 often accompanied by these delightful ladies \u2013 the Biking Belles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although I\u2019m pretty new to road biking, I absolutely love it. It\u2019s not just a great way to keep fit, but also very sociable, really exhilarating and just brilliant fun.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, August 31, the Biking Belles <\/a>will be holding a brand new women-only charity cycling event at the famous Goodwood Motor Circuit in West Sussex, in aid of Boot Out Breast Cancer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The event will start at 8am with three sportives. Each rider will complete one lap of the Goodwood circuit (2.38 miles) and then leave to cycle their chosen route of, either 35, 50 or 70 miles, through the Sussex countryside.<\/p>\n

Entries are available through the British Cycling website at a cost of \u00a315 – \u00a320 depending on your route, or on the day at a cost of \u00a320 – \u00a325.<\/p>\n

There\u2019ll be food and water stops en route, plus goodie bags at the finish.<\/p>\n

Following the departure of the sportives, the circuit opens up at about 10am \u2013 1pm to the public (women over 18yrs only) to cycle around at their leisure. The entry fee for this will be \u00a310 per person.<\/p>\n

After lunch, the Elite national women\u2019s racing begins with The Lady March Grand Prix Race.<\/p>\n

Even though it\u2019s a women\u2019s cycling event, all the family are welcome. Refreshments will be available and there will be lots of stalls with plenty of cycling-orientated items to purchase.<\/p>\n

Entries will be taken on the day but bookings are now open on the British Cycling website. Here’s the direct link: www.britishcycling.org.uk\/events\/details\/104740\/Biking-Belles-Sportives-at-Goodwood-Motorcircuit<\/a><\/p>\n
