Breeze Derby - Flora and Fauna #4 - Lanes Garden Centre

Starting from Darley Park (top car park on Darley Park Road opposite The Broadway Pub) this is a fairly flat route that goes via The River Path and Elvaston Country Park to Borrowash and then takes the Old Derby Canal Path to The Navigation Pub where we turn north on Risley Lane to James' Cafe at Lanes Garden centre. The return journey retraces some parts of the outward journey but we take a more direct route back to Pentagon Island and Chester Green.

We ride a mixture of shared bike paths and busier roads. There are a couple of tricky road crossings to be negotiated.

We stop at Lanes Garden Centre at around the half way point.

Helmets are advised - I will be wearing one. The Covid Bit - This ride will adhere to the current social distancing requirements at all times, from car park to cafe and including stopping at junctions. Please bring everything with you that you might need on the ride eg spares, tools, extra clothing, snacks and drink, sharing is not encouraged. There is no need to wear a mask on the ride but it's probably best to have one handy. Please do not ride if you feel unwell, have Covid symptoms or have been advised to self isolate. If you test positive after the ride, please let the ride leader know.
