Rother Valley Lakes and Trails

Come and join us for a regular Thursday evening ride at Rother Valley country Park. Rother Valley consists of a series of lakes which are home to a wide variety of wildlife, visitor and water sports centre http://www.rothervalleycountrypark.co.uk/.  It is a great location to get started on the bike as it is flat and has lots of great trails which are entirely off road. For the first ride we are planning to do a couple of circuits of the main lakes so you can choose to do either 5km for 1 lap or 10km if you do 2 laps. As the evenings get lighter we are hoping to venture further afield, for example along the old railway towards Chesterfield where we will be able to stop in a pub garden for refreshments. Wearing a helmet is advisable, though not essential however all children under the age of 16 must wear a helmet. The trail round the lakes is well surface so pretty much any bike will do. Come and give it a go!
