How many River Wear bridges can we go over or under?

We start at Washington Southern Area Playing Fields car park and cycle down the River Wear to see how many bridges we can go over or under by criss crossing between the north and south sides of the river. We'll head all the down to the Wear Bridge before having a stop.
We plan to take a break at Sheepfolds Stables where there is a choice of venues for drinks, snacks, doughnuts or pies.
Then we'll head back up river counting a few more bridges.
Our last river crossing is the pedestrian bridge at Cox Green and from here we'll head back to the start point.

Mainly on cycle paths and shared paths but some stretches on road

We will plan a cafe stop on the route and will let you know about it in later communications.

Please ensure that your bike is in good working order and that you bring a spare inner tube and any tools you may need. Please dress appropriately for the weather now that temperatures are dropping and bring a drink for the ride. Helmets are advisable for Breeze bike rides.
