Join the spring cycle

With spring well and truly in the air, what better time of year is there to dust off the bicycle, find a helmet, call up some friends and go for a ride. The challenge with that is people don’t always know who to call. This has all changed with the introduction of Life Cycle 55+ Explore Rides in Geelong.
Life Cycle 55+ is a weekly group ride tailored to those aged 55 and over. It consists of a weekly ride around the bike trails and pathways of Geelong.
For the co-ordinator of the ride, Chelsea Fisher, nothing beats getting out in the fresh air and exploring the bike paths and trails.
“There’s a lot of trails in Geelong (and surrounds) that people aren’t aware of,” Chelsea explains “and also coffee shops – there are some great coffee shops. The rides provide opportunities for people to be active, and socialise over a coffee. Some great friendships have been formed through the course of our rides.”
Chelsea has led the weekly ride for over 12 months now. It leave from outside Little Creatures Brewery at 10am each Friday.
Every week she comes up with a fun local ride tailored to the weather and the riders ability.
“I always come with fresh ideas. However riding along the waterfront on a clear day is one of my favourites – it’s gorgeous!”
