Kidsgrove to Westport Lake & Back

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. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour. Starting out from the Kidsgrove Sports Centre it won’t be long before we are off the quiet local roads and travelling along the excellent shared foot paths of Bathpool Park.  We will skirt around its lakes before continuing south and out of the park.  After a short ride along the shared footpath we will arrive at the Trent and Mersey Canal which we will follow all the way to the beautiful Westport Lake.  There will be time for a little break here to enjoy the nature reserve with maybe a tea, coffee or even an ice cream before we start on our way back to the Kidsgrove Sports Centre.
