A very enjoyable ride, lovely trails through beautiful woodland and rewarded with the magnificent Newstead Abbey.
No significant hills, however, climbing approx 2000ft (those cheeky ups) equally those lovely downs….

Gravel/MTB/Hybrid tyres.
Mixed trails from Shireoaks along the Canal, through Clumber, Sherwood and onto Newstead Abbey - an alternative return route mainly trails.

Following Route 6….. Mainly traffic free, one short section of road.

Lunch will be at Newstead Abbey.

This will be a long day so please don’t book if you have time limitations.
