DH7 9TT
Please note this is a hilly ride with approximately 1900 feet of elevation.
We will start with an easy breeze from Diggerland through to Lanchester. Here we will slowly climb out of the valley and admire the views as we pass Hall Hill Farm and onto Tow Law. At the top of the valley we will ride along the edge before making our way back down to join the Deerness Valley track. At Waterhouses we will rejoin the road and at Esh Winning, we will do our final claim up to Quebec followed by our last descent back o to Langley Park.
It has been difficult finding an appropriate cafe stop. .In the end we have opted for a pub stop in Sunniside, The Moss Inn, which does lunches/hot andwiches.. it is approximately 2/3rds into our ride with most of the hills done.
We strongly recommend you wear a helmet and you carry with you 2 spare inner tubes that fit your bike. We also recommend that you consider the weather conditions and dress appropriately.
If the weather is not condusive to this ride, we have an option to shorten the ride at Tow Law or even abandon our route and just go to Hownsgill for a cuppa and bite to eat.
We look forward to challenging you on this ride with beautiful scenic views
