Starting point




Northumberland
TD12 4TL

Once we're up Fordbank Hill this is a mostly flat ride.

We leave Etal and head to Lowick, via Ford and Barmoor.

We then keep heading to the coast before turning to Holborn where we ride over the moor and head to the wonderful downhill into Doddington.

From there we head home via Fenton and Kimmerston.

Please Note:
Helmets are always advisable.
Please check the weather forecast and bring suitable clothing.
Carrying a spare inner tube and some basic repair tools is also a good idea.
Please also check your bike the day before the ride, ensuring that all the bits that are supposed to spin do so freely and all the bits that aren't meant to move don't.
Also check that both your tyres are full of air.
