Evening Tootle to the Tithe Barn and Teletubby Hill
Thurs 28th May 2026 7pm 8 miles
Start at Gala Theatre DH1 1WA

Who knew there was a Tithe Barn in the city centre and where can we find the teletubbies? A perfect tootle for a short evening bike trip.

Our route showcases the city. We start by breezing the riverbanks to Shincliffe and back the other side to Green Lane. We’ll pass the Crown Court and discover the Tithe Barn, hidden away behind Whinney Hill. Our journey then explores some of the university site before heading across the river via Prebends Bridge and back down the Bailey, past the Cathedral and Castle to our start by the library.

We’ll be following a mix of good quality off-road paths and quiet roads. Any type of bike will do the job.

As always we can’t predict the weather so please dress suitably. Please come with bike lights in case light conditions are dreary.

In order for the ride to leave promptly, please be punctual so we can carry out bike checks, etc. prior to us setting off. Please make sure your bike is in working condition and bring a spare tube to fit your tyres. Expect to be out for about an hour and a half.

If you book on and then cannot make it please cancel your place.

For any queries ‘message ride creator’ in the ride posting.

We look forward to meeting you.
