About the route

Starting point




Tyne and Wear
NE3 5JT

We'll be taking the clockwise route to the Riding Sun cafe: Heathery Lane, Gosforth Nature Reserve, Camperdown, Windy Field(tm), Holystone, Rising Sun Country Park.

We'll stop for 40 minutes or so at the Cafe and return via Benton, NUFC Training ground & Academy and Heaton.

Please let me know if you’d prefer to join the ride at the Nature Reserve at 10:20am.

Although most of the ride is on wagonways and cycle/shared paths, there will be some short stretches of road. Remember that it's spring and there will be mud!

Please be prepared to fix any mechanical issues you may have, and especially punctures (a spare inner tube is *much* better than a repair kit). That said, there will be plenty of help if you do have issues.
