FLAB Social Rides Gateshead and South Tyneside - River Tyne Wylam Loop

Starting at Baltic Square, we head west along the south bank of the River Tyne, crossing the river at Newburn to ride along to George Stephenson's gaff then head east all the way along to the pedestrian tunnel then it's a short ride back to Baltic Square

The route will be mainly paved cycleways but there are a couple of short unpaved sections and there will be a couple of sections where we are on road

Easy going, fairly flat ride, there will stops for group photos, selfies, and cake. We'll be stopping for coffee and cake at The Cycle Hub at Ouseburn so please remember cash/card for refreshments if you're planning on partaking.

Please note that helmets are mandatory on this ride. Please also ensure that you have a basic toolkit, spare inner tube, puncture repair kit etc to ensure that you are self sufficient. For anyone driving to the ride, there is ample free parking by the cycle hub at Ouseburn.

We never leave anyone behind
