Saturday Ride - A climb to "The Falcon" for pie & a pint!

Starting from the Hub, head along NCR72 on the north side of the Tyne until we get to Wylam. Crossing the Tyne at Hagg Bank Bridge, we make a left to climb sharply for almost a mile - (this uphill climb is quite steep), until we reach The Falcon pub. Stopping there for food & catch your breath after the uphill slog, we can then return (this time free pedalling) downhill to return to Wylam. Crossing again over the Tyne, we return on the south side via NCR141 & 14 to the Millenium bridge, onward to the Hub.
