This is a lovely flat ride from Broompark picnic area along the Deerness Valley Way to Waterhouses where we will take a short tour of the Nature Reserve led by the lovely Clare Ross. There will also be an opportunity for tea and cake in this idyllic setting. We will then return along the same off road route. This is a flat 15 mile round trip with a guided tour of some of Durham's rare trees and birds. Entertainment for the whole family! It’s perfect for beginners and those that haven’t been on their bike for a while. We really welcome newcomers to our rides and we will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. It's a good idea to bring some water and you may also want to bring a snack.  Please bring some money and if the weather is bad a waterproof. Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then.  Come along and join us!
