EWCAN Rides

 Easy Wednesday Cafe and Natter rides


Please come along to our new EWCAN ride, where we will have a short cycle ride to a cafe social, all within easy distance of Kendal. We aim to arrive at the nominated cafe from 11am, to beat the lunchtime rush, but how you get there is up to you.
  • ride directly from your home to the cafe
  • or meet at the designated start point and ride with a group on a choice of road or off-road routes to the cafe. Suggested routes will be provided, or devise your own. Starts will be 9.30-10am to allow sufficient time for a short (around 10m/15k) ride to the cafe.
  • go directly to the cafe just to meet up for the natter.
  • no need to book or notify - just turn up.
In the first instance, we aim to do a EWCAN (You Can) ride monthly, probably on the 4th Wednesday of each month. 
Watch this space.

The first EWCAN ride is on Wednesday 25th March
Cafe: Lakeland Farm Cafe, Ings from 11am
Ride: Meet Biketrex car park, Ings, for 09.45 departure. Road and off-road routes will be recommended.
