Front car park (outside Evans Cycles) National Cycling Centre Stuart Street M11 4DQ
Starting and finishing at the National Cycling Centre, home of Team GB, this 16 mile out-and-back ride showcases the traffic-free Manchester Cycleway (AKA The Fallowfield Loop Line). Being a former railway line, the route is flat and well surfaced, and only deviates onto the road for a short 200 metre stretch. Chorlton Park at the midway point of the route provides an ideal stopping point for some food and drink.
I won't go all the way back to the NCC but will cut back to Stockport. This will also be an alternative starting point. Contact me for details
