Tale of Two Trails

When you’re ready to broaden your cycling horizons and take on a bit more of a challenge, Ride Well is perfect. You’ll need to be happy to push yourself a little bit, maybe even taking on a couple of modest hills, but at a pace you'll be comfortable with. These rides are designed to give you a rich cycling experience on mainly quiet roads with plenty of places of interest along the way. A circular 15.5 mile route taking in the Trans Pennine Trail and Fallowfield Loop Line. The Trans Pennine Trail stretches across the country from Southport in the west to Hornsea in the east, and is a superb network of traffic-free paths and quiet roads. The Fallowfield Loop Line is a converted railway path in the south Manchester suburbs, acting like a ring road for urban cyclists. Discover two great routes in the heart of the city. Sections of the route are on compacted dirt and shale paths, which can get muddy in wet weather. Therefore road bikes are not recommended.  Please note it is essential that anybody arriving by car parks at the lower car park. Please bring a drnk and a snack, as we will stop for a chat and a breather halfway round the ride.  Dress appropriately for the weather- layers are good at this time of the year and bring a waterproof just in case.  Helmets ae recommended but nont compulsary except for participants under the age of 18.   if you have any questions you can contact me on [email protected]
