Knitsley Loop

A simple and sociable route, setting off from Dobbies Garden Centre and heading through Chester le Street to the Plawsworth roundabout. We will climb up to Sacriston and then enjoy the drop down to Witton Gilbert. Once we reach Langley Park we will be using tracks 7 and 14 for the rest of the ride. Our cafe stop will be at Knitsley Farm Shop.

This route involves some road cycling (the busiest bits will be from Dobbies to Langley Park), cycle paths and off road tracks with c. 1400 feet of climbing over the whole route.

Please check your bike is in good working condition before the day and bring a spare inner tube to fit your tyres. A drink and a helmet are also advised, as well as clothing appropriate for the weather conditions.

You can contact the leader(s) directly via the ‘Message Ride Creator’ tab in the ride posting on Let’s Ride.

We look forward to seeing you.

Janet, Kay and Helen.
