A Pedal to Path Head Water Mill

This route involves cycling on tracks, trails and roads. Some of the tracks are gravel/uneven and are not suitable for road bikes. The ride is noted as challenging due to the different surfaces we are cycling on, requiring experienced bike handling skills.

This loop takes us from Newfield up the C2C across to Tanfield railway and then winds our way over to Blaydon and the Path Head Water Mill. Our route back will be along the Tyne to Dunstan, Lady Park, Ouston and back to Newfield. It involves c 1500 feet of climbing over the course of the ride.

Please check your bike is in good working condition before the day and bring a spare inner tube to fit your tyres. A drink, snacks and a helmet are also advised, as well as clothing appropriate for the weather conditions. Please arrive in good time for our introductions and M-Check before we set off.

You can contact the leader(s) directly via the ‘Message Ride Creator’ tab in the ride posting on Let’s Ride.

We look forward to seeing you.

Janet and Kay
