We will meet on the South Green, Staindrop (what3words turntable.prepared.teeth). Please park with care in the village and be mindful of home owner's access.

This is a 26 mile loop with c 1300 feet of climbing over the course of the ride. The route is all on roads, most of them pretty quiet except for a couple of short stretches. Most of the route is gently undulating, with a few lumpy bits to warm us up :-D

We will be heading out of County Durham, crossing the River Tees over the Spitfire Bridge into Richmondshire. This route takes us into lovely countryside with beautiful views. Cycling through Winston, Caldwell, Melsonby, and Aldbrough St John, we will stop at Eppleby for a cuppa before returning to Staindrop.

Please check your bike is in good working condition before the day and bring a spare inner tube to fit your tyres. A drink and a helmet are also advised.

You can contact the leader(s) directly via the ‘Message Ride Creator’ tab in the ride posting on Let’s Ride if you have any queries.

We look forward to seeing you.

Janet, Kay and Susan
