The Hardback Cafe at Shadwell Library

Join us for the gentle paced FridayRidey to re-opened Hardback Cafe at Shadwell Library, some hills but nothing too challenging, there is an option of an extra loop on the return leg

Hardback Cafe at Shadwell Library, it is CASH only. Halloween spooky lunch treats likely at our favourite café.

Leaving Cookridge we drop down Holt lane to Adel and onto Eccup Reservoir, cross A61 to pick up the cycle path round the back of Leeds Grammar School, it has degraded in parts, skinny road tyres may struggle a little bit, but the option is to walk the short section. Turning left onto Wigton lane to the T junction left onto Wike Ridge lane, right onto Tarn lane, right onto Brandon crescent, Bayhorse lane then right onto Main street and our lunch stop at the library

Leaving the cafe we head back to Adel via Alwoodley, tackling Stairfoot lane dropping Adel starters off then its back to Cookridge on the in route


Bike lock is a must, spare inner tube and pennies for lunch
