Honoured to celebrate @cyclinginaskirt Helen Shipley’s life in a cycling procession at her funeral today. She was an inspiration and will be deeply missed by the Sheffield and online cycling communities. Sending love to her family, friends, and followers. What a loss. 💔🚲

Replying to @CyclingInASkirt
There is a steady hill climb so we are allowing double the suggested journey time. We will go up Abbey Lane to the Abbey Lane cemetery entrance to the Crematorium. There is an option to join the Bike cortege at the Abbey Lane cemetery entrance circa 2:30
