Starting point

S40 2NF

Beside the pedestrian crossing at Queen's Park north car park

This ride will mainly be on roads with some cycle paths and is our normal route in reverse with a slight change to make it hillier.

We will leave Queens Park via the cycle path to the station then join Brimmington Road uphill to Tapton. We rejoin the cycle path at Tapton Lock to JE James roundabout then Sheffield Road to The Riverside Garden Centre.

We'll stop here for a cuppa and possibly the breakfast special which we have previously sampled and can confirm that it is not only tasty, but good value!

We then return via road, uphill through Sheep bridge estate, Dunston Estate to Newbold Road then back to Queen's Park.

This route is more challenging than our usual way to The Riverside and is not suitable for absolute beginners or those not comfortable riding on roads.

So, remember to bring some money for the café, a puncture repair kit and spare inner tube if you have one, a drink and a big smile for my selfies.
