Car park for the Red Lion around the back. Toilets available here.
A steady climb up to the airport and then around the airport trail. Then a nice decent into Castle Donnington. Picking up the cycle paths to The New Inn at Shardlow. Stop for a drink then around the paths past The Plank and Leggit and along Long Lane. One steady hill. The rest flat. Off road tyres needed for this one as some road and some trails.
