Breeze celebrate newly upgraded Hylton Bridge C2C section with a visit to Washington Wetlands Centre

Womens Social ride - Leisure United Ford to Washington Wetlands.
Come and celebrate the newly upgraded Hylton Bridge section of the Coast to Coast (C2C) with us.
Join us for a relaxed women only ride from Leisure United Ford (South Hylton) to WWT (Washington Wetlands Trust).
This ride is delivered in partnership with Walk Wheel Cycle Trist, giving us the chance to experience the newly upgraded section of the Coast to Coast - a route that was once muddy and not accessible to everyone.

Starting from Leisure United Ford in South Hylton we'll join the traffic-free path to cross the Northern Spire Bridge before following the Coast to Coast (C2C) Route 7 towards Washington. The route is mostly off-road on a wide, smooth path, passing through green spaces and running alongside the River Wear before heading towards Washington. We'll continue along the newly upgraded section of the route, arriving at Washington Wetlands Centre where we'll stop for a wander around and a cafe break. After our visit we will cycle back to Leisure United Ford together.

This route includes a mix of surfaces including quiet roads, cycle paths, shared paths and old Wagonways. Suitable for hybrid or mountain bikes

Washington Wetlands Centre have kindly agreed that all participants can have free entry when we stop for food and drinks at the cafe. We can also wander around the centre and see the birds and animals.
