Loop around Lanchester

Starting from the Riverside cafe in Chester le St we will head past the market place and under the viaduct and up onto the C2C cycle track. Heading west up past Stanley to Annfield Plain where we join the road and go down into Lanchester. After a refreshment stop we join the Lanchester Valley way to take us to towards Durham and up to Neville's Cross to head back to Chester on the cycle track alongside the A167.
Although not a difficult ride I have marked it as challenging as there are a few climbs and it will be a fairly good pace.
Please check bikes and be prepared for any weather conditions.
