EcoHub Ride to the Airport

Leaving the EcoHub the route goes through Erdington to Chester Road. Following the cycle route to Castle Bromwich Hall and Gardens we will then join the River Cole Greenway to Sheldon Park and the Airport.

This is a Pype Hayes Community Ride. Riders are advised to wear helmets, but it is not obligatory. Bikes need to be in good working order. The EcoHub has bicycles that can be loaned out if required. If you have not joined a Pype Hayes Cycling UK ride before we would ask that you complete a new participant form.

The route takes in a mixtures of roads, cycle ways, canal towpaths and park paths.

We will stop once at Sheldon Park for a drink and comfort break.
