High Marnham (Tuxford) to Doddington Hall with Cafe Stop

Starting near The Brownlow Arms at High Marnham. We will travel along the old railway line towards Lincoln, which is a mix of gravel and tarmac. At Doddington Hall there is a choice of two cafes, one of which is inside the Giant Cycling Bike Shop, so we can even indulge in some cycling retail therapy too. We then head back to the old railway line and then return to our starting point.

This route is predominantly off road but with a section on country lanes to get us to/from Doddington Hall. Elevation is relatively flat with a couple of undulations.

Please wear comfortable clothing suited to the weather. It is recommended that you carry spare inner tubes, puncture repair kit and a multi tool, just in case you have any mechanical issues. Please check before the ride, that your bike is in a road worthy condition.

It’s a good idea to bring some water and you may also want to bring a snack if you think your energy levels may need topping up along the way. Please bring some money if you want to buy refreshments/cake at the café stop.

Wearing a helmet is highly recommended, though not essential.

Please arrive at least 10 minutes early, so we are ready to depart on time. Looking forward to seeing you there. Sarah
