Meeting in the car park for New College Durham we will cycle on cycle lane and cycle path to Chester-le-Street for breakfast “pay as you feel” at the lovely Refuse cafe.
This ride is ideal for anyone new to, or returning for cycling as well as seasoned cyclists who want a trip out for a chat and some breakfast!

Please ignore the text below about Newton Aycliffe - I cannot edit this part of the ride description, but we are definitely going straight to Chester-le-Street!


A short but history filled ride from Shildon to Newton Aycliffe to find the Aycliffe Angels - a recently unveiled plaque to the women of the Aycliffe Munitions factory

Cycle path and industrial estate roads.

We will stop at ROF59, the site of the plaque and also a cafe and activity centre.

Helmets are always recommended as are warm clothes, layers, full finger winter gloves and warm socks and buffs. It is always useful to bring waterproofs as well. Please also bring along a spare inner tube, suitable for your wheel, tyre levers and a pump.

We especially welcome newbies!
