TPT Elsecar to Old Moor Mums' and Kids' Ride

This is an enjoyable ride along the Trans Pennine Trail from RSPB Old Moor to Elsecar Heritage Centre. This is a traffic-free route, except for a few unavoidable road crossings. We'll take it nice and easy! This is the return journey of an earlier Old Moor to Elsecar ride. If you want to join us on the ride from Old Moor to Elsecar and back again then you will need to register for both! You should be able to find it listed in the same place as this ride. Alternatively you can arrange your own transport back. We thought we would split the return journey in two to give people the option of doing the whole ride or just one-way! We would love you to join us from 12 - 1pm for a picnic lunch at Elsecar Heritage Centre. Please bring your own picnic or there is a lovely cafe called the Pantry. The earlier ride finishes here at 12 so we can all have lunch together before this ride starts. Why not spend some time at Old Moor? Scroll down to see what's on! Some of the route is a hard surface; some is a bit looser and possibly a little muddy depending on recent rainfall. It's also pretty flat. Most bikes would be suitable, but maybe not anything with very narrow tyres! Children will need to be able to ride unassisted without stabilisers and MUST wear a helmet. It’s a good idea to bring some water, snack to keep you going and money for if we stop at a cafe. Wearing a helmet is advisable; if you don’t have one please do not to worry you can still take part.  If you enjoy the bike ride and would like to come again perhaps you could look to buy one then.  We really welcome newcomers to our rides; we will always ride at the pace of the slowest rider so no one is left behind. Look forward to seeing you there.
