the hub to parkhead station and over to stanhope then back

travelling from the hub we'll call into pedalling squares to pick up more cyclists before hopping onto the derwent walk no.14 up to consett where we stop for a cuppa. We then traverse the no.71 west to stanhope, turn around and climb back up to parkhead station for another cuppa(optional) before enjoying a swift descent back to the tyne to drop off at pedalling squares and then back to the hub. It'll be a long day so consider the weather conditions and bring appropriate clothing, snacks and drink plus puncture repair equipment and any special tools your bike might need.
