From Moor Allerton library car park ride on the ELOR bike paths to Springs at Thorpe Park, Colton and return

Starting close to the LIBRARY and COMMUNITY HUB at the Moor Allerton shopping complex (far end away from Sainsburys) we cross King Lane to join bike paths going alongside the ring road to Moortown Roundabout, onto Shadwell . At the bottom of Park Lane we join the new bike path, and go along the new ELOR to get to the Thorpe Park commercial estate, which includes the Springs Shopping complex, cinema and costa. We travel around several of the new ELOR roundabouts.
there is plenty of parking at the library end of the Moor Allerton shopping complex.
Riding time will be approx 1 hour 50mins plus coffee stop time so we will be back approx 2.5 hours after departure
The ride is open to anyone, whether a member of Leeds Breeze group or not.
the following is a link to the route (hope it works!)

A relatively flat route designed to encourage women into biking due to its mainly traffic free paths, being the bike paths alongside the new East Leeds orbital ring road. Crossing several roundabouts on bike crossing lights it is a safe route.

some older bike paths in the Moortown area and new bike paths along the side of the ELOR.

We will stop at Costa, or ANOther cafe, by the multiscreen cinema at the Springs retail park at Thorpe Park, Colton. Drinks and snacks available at Costa or bring your own to eat at the outside table. Toilet at Costa.

helmets, spare inner tubes, money in case you need a taxi home and water bottles
