The Whitegate Way - Breeze ride

This is a women and children only Breeze Ride. This is a mainly flat, mainly off-road ride with lovely views and interesting places. It is suitable for a mountain bike or sturdy hybrid. We will just take it steady if you don't cycle much but still want to give it a try! We start by taking a trip across the fields on a restricted path, past the quarry and onto a small hill with a wonderful view over Winnington way. We reach the main road at Sandiway, and follow the road to Cuddington where we join the Whitegate Way for a lovely long cycle along a flattish, and well marked path that takes us all the way to the salt mine at Winsford. We have to get off out bikes at the now derelict Whitegate Station as they are repairing the bridge. They have added some steps for us to carry our bikes the short walk back onto the main path. At Winsford, we cycle along the river to the lock, to the blue bridge and back to Hartford. There will be vistas, flowers, birds and wildlife! So many different parts of beautiful Cheshire to see! If riders would like to, we can stop at Relish for a tea and cake at the end, or ride straight back to the station. The choice is yours! :-) We will do a bike check and introduction at 9:45 so that we can set off on time. I look forward to leading you on this fabulous ride! Claire x
