Saturday July 25th. Winginit 53miles around Rotherham

This is a very nice route using lots of OFF Road trails tracks & woodland paths. We'll be riding on lots of different and varied surfaces and seeing lots of scenic countryside.
It’s not a race but our pace usually averages around 9mph for the whole route.
We do like a coffee stop or two, usually with a bacon butty, cake or scone, and we do like to chat so we have to watch the time spent in the cafes

Lots of trails tracks paths woodlands fields and a bit of tarmac in this 53 miles route. Plenty of countryside, some lovely scenery, and possibly some sections you've never done before

Dirt trails through woodlands, canal paths, gravel cycle trails, field paths, dirt singletracks, some will be overgrown, it will be dusty, maybe a bit of mud if it rains, and we've got a bit of tarmac too. Should be a very interesting and entertaining ride.

At least 2 stops, the first one is at 17m in the new WATERFRONT Cafe in RotherValley CP (opens at 09.00) the 2nd at a Tea Room in Whitwell at 34 miles and maybe an ice cream stop at Turner Wood kiosk, or a coffee stop at Macchiato in Thurcroft, if we fancy it.

ALWAYS wear a helmet and suitable riding gear for the conditions. Carry some water and snack, bring cash & card for the cafe's. We are a social group and we ride together. All riders are individually responsible for their own bike maintenance and own safety. If a rider gets a flat we will pause and help if needed, but you the rider, should ALWAYS carry tools & spares to repair a flat ! (tube, puncture kit, pump etc) Your bike should have a bell to warn other trail users of our approach, and when its wet weather Mudguards should be fitted to prevent spraying other riders.

'First Time with us', you are very welcome
