RIDE/ROUTE DESCRIPTION:
A partly linear, partly circular route that uses a combination of cycle paths and roads and provides some rewarding views!
A slightly tweaked route to what we've done previously, but although primarily flat, iit still Involves a hill that gives the legs and lungs a workout on the way there (with a couple of points to get your breath back!)
Suitable for all bike types.

According to the Wheelbirks website... "Experience and indulge in the freshest of Wheelbirks award winning ice cream, milkshakes and luxury ice cream desserts all produced just a few hundred yards from your seat. Also serving a range of fresh food, coffees, speciality teas and cold drinks. Take in the beautiful views of Northumberland countryside while enjoying the best in home cooked foodl made using our very own dairy products and the best quality locally sourced ingredients."

THE BORING BUT IMPORTANT BITS....
Please make sure your bike is in working condition PRIOR to arriving for the ride and bring a spare inner tube to fit your tyres (check the valve type too!) and/or a puncture repair kit. The leaders can help you fix a puncture, but only if you have the right size inner tube for your bike or a puncture repair kit!
Whilst we welcome any bike type, we have zero knowledge of e-bikes, so if you are riding an e-bike, please come prepared to independently sort out any mechanicals that you may have.
