An undulating loop, all on roads, from Staindrop across to Croft on Tees for our break.
The route has approx 1600 feet of climbing, the steepest section being at Winston where we drop down to cross the River Tees and climb back up again. We get to do this stretch twice for good measure!
The majority of the roads are usually fairly quiet, but confidence to ride on roads will be necessary for this route as a couple of short stretches will be on busier roads. Please follow any instructions from the ride leaders for the safety of the group.
The route takes us through pretty countryside and villages and has some beautiful views of County Durham and Richmondshire.
Please check your bike is in good working condition before the day and bring a spare inner tube to fit your tyres. A drink, snacks and a helmet are also advised, as well as clothing appropriate for the weather conditions.
You can contact the leader(s) directly via the ‘Message Ride Creator’ tab in the ride posting on Let’s Ride.
We look forward to seeing you.
