The Pavilion café @ Stamford Park

Join me on my hilly 18ish mile pootle to the Pavilion café in Stamford Park, Stalybridge.

The route is a mad mix of road and trails as it takes us through the pretty Clayton Vale and Sunnybank Vale (bit of lifting required here to get bikes over kissing gates). Once out of Sunnybank, roads will take us to Lees Park and out onto Newmarket Road up to Waterloo and round to Smallshaw Rs. This will get us out onto Queens Road which'll take us to Stamford Park. The return leg will likely take us down through the country lanes of Alt Village.

Bike Type: All (95% paved and 5% compacted gravel/cobbles) Café stop: The Pavillion café

Helmets are advisable. Please bring a lock, puncture repair kit and clothing appropriate for the weather, and cash/card for the café stop (I cannot guarantee card machines, or that they work if the café has them). Please be ready to set off at 09:30.

We never leave anyone behind
