Hurricanes to Spacemen from Watchtree Nature Reserve

This circular ride starts from the Watchtree Nature Reserve the home of various aircraft including Hurricanes, Wellingtons & Vickers aircraft. The route will follow undulating quiet country roads heading for the Solway Firth along the route of the Roman wall. We'll then pass along some lanes with spectacular open views of the Burgh Marsh the site of the famous Cumbrian spaceman photo, before returning to the Nature Reserve. If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way.
