Starting point

NE3 1QL

the two mini roundabouts in south gosforth under the 'sky' billboard. Plenty of places to park a car here if you are driving to the start.

A steady trip along the waggonways and a few quiet roads to go from south gosforth down through wallsend and onto the '72' west along the river to the hub for a cuppa and a rumble through the bike jumble, then hopping over to the south side and on to newburn, over the bridge and back to gosforth on the north side of the tyne. There is a little road work in places as this one doesn't connect well with the waggonways, there are none on the west side of the city centre that help this ride but trust me to guide you through as 'quiet' a route as possible. I've listed the ride as suitable for any bike but 'skinny tyred racers' might be a little less comfortable! I'm a BC ride leader (acting independantly on this one) and a first aider so you are in reasonably safe hands!!!
