Starting from the pay and display car park we will head out around the trails of the Ashby Woulds, taking in Moira Furnace, Conkers circuit & Ashby canal. Approximately 11 mile circuit. After a stop for some lunch at Grounds cafe or a packed lunch if you prefer you can join me on the trails of Hicks Lodge or simply do your own thing. The trails are good gravel surface and nice easy singletrack, suitable for MTB, CX /Gravel bikes or even hybrids. The Blue route is approximately 4 miles in length and I will be doing 2 or 3 laps before heading home.

A gentle ride along the trails of the Ashby Woulds, taking in Moira Furnace, Conkers circuit, Ashby canal and if anyone is feeling adventurous the offroad trails at Hicks Lodge.
