Durham to Penshaw Circular

Starting from County Hall we will ride mainly on road across to Pittington, via Rennies Lane to Sherburn and then Hetton-le-hole and Doxford Park before turning north and riding off road through Herrington Park to stop at the lovely Penshaw Nursery and teashopcafe for refreshments and the short stroll up to the monument. from there we will return via Shiny Row, Fencehouses, Great Lumley,  Cocken bank and Newton Hall to County Hall. We look forward to welcoming our regular friends and hopefully some new faces too along for a gossipy, breezy and thoroughly enjoyable afternoon. Some of the offroad route is overgrown so you may want to consider longer trousers and long sleeves. Please ensure that you bring appropriate clothing and equipment for the conditions. Bottles of water are always a good idea and we recommend that riders wear cycling helmets. A bike safety check will be undertaken before we set off. If you do need to contact us before the ride please call me on 07795 390871. look forward to seeing you.   Jacki
