Come and join us on this family ride to Kirkstall Abbey taking in some of the spectacular scenery on the Aire Valley Canal Tow Path on route to this Medieval Cistercian Abbey with Museum, Cafe & Gift Shop.  We pass Kirkstall Brewery en route before entering the Abbey grounds.  With so much to see you wouldn't believe you were so close to the city centre! This ride uses part of National Cycle Network (NCN) route 66. To find out more about the NCN and other great places to cycle near you everyday, go to the Sustrans website (http://www.sustrans.org.uk/ncn/map/national-cycle-network). If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour.
