A pleasant ride along the Bridgewater Canal from Stretford to Worsley.
Leaving Longford Park we will pick up the canal for this mostly traffic free route to Worsley, where we will stop for a drink and/or snack before retracing our path back to the start.
The route is flat and apart from a short road section, almost entirely 'off road'. It is best suited to a hybrid or MTB although a road bike would be ok. Whatever you are riding, you need to make sure that it is in good working order and that you carry the tools and equipment to make minor repairs - punctures. We can help you with it but you should carry a spare inner tube, pump and a spanner if your wheel does not have a quick release. You should bring a lock for the cafe stop and money if you want to buy anything. Dress for the weather on the day, bearing in mind that you will warm up as you ride and cool down when we stop, so layers are a good idea.
In case of bad weather the route may be altered or shortened.
