Starting point

LS25 1QD

At the top end of Main Street at the junction with Barrowby Lane, Garforth

Come and join us for a lovely ride around the countryside north of Garforth. This is a gentle ride at a slow pace about 8 miles long, which should take about an hour and a half to cycle. However please allow at least 20 minutes for the bike checks before the ride begins.

The route is mainly off road, taking in the north side of Garforth. We start by going up Nanny Goat Lane, heading towards Leeds and peel off onto bridal ways, concrete roads (quiet) and good tracts through Garforth Golf course and into  Parlington estate and up to Aberford. We aim to return by the fly line back to Garforth and the start point. However, the latter part can be muddy and if this is the case then we will head back and return to via Barwick Road. Newcomers to Breeze rides are very welcome.  It's a good idea to bring some water and you may also want to bring a snack as we will stop for a short break along the route. Dress appropriately for the weather. In cold/wet weather it's good to wear lots of thin layers, so you can add/remove them as needed. Wearing a helmet is advisable, though not essential. Contact on the day 07950 444715. I look forward to seeing you there! Wendy
