Starting from outside B&Q on Morton Park, we ride around the outskirts of Darlington town, in an anti-clockwise direction following roads and the town's cycleways. We’ll have a café stop in the Town Centre, then we’ll ride back to B&Q via South Park. This is our Christmas-themed ride, so fancy dress is encouraged! Put on your best Christmas regalia, and glam up your bike with lights, tinsel, garland, etc! Merry Christmas!

This ride is classed as a STEADY ride which is around 13 miles in total. The ride is undulating with some hill climbs. The ride is all on the road or cycleways – all bike types suitable for this ride. It is suitable for riders who are fit enough to sustain around 10mph avg. and can continually cycle for around 2 hours each way. The stopover on this ride will be for around 1 hour. Bear in mind these times are a guide and the ride can take longer.
