North of the River

Start by heading over the bridge towards Corbridge, before taking a ride and steadily climbing out of the village. We take a left after 1.5 miles and head onto quiet country lane up and over the A69. After heading up the Aydon road we cross the Military Road before heading to Matfen. There follows a lovely flat stretch along to Stamfordham. We then head along the twisty road to the reservoirs. After crossing back over the military road we wind our way through the lanes before dropping back into Corbridge. Should be good views over the Tyne valley. For those of you that came last week this ride is slightly further but has a bit less climbing. Coffee in Corbridge at the end. Bring: pump, tubes and levers, money if you fancy a cafe stop at the end.
