WATFORD CYCLE HUB: WATFORD STATIONS &amp; ABBEY FLYER LINE TO ST. ALBANS PACE AVERAGE 10-11 MPH

Starting point

Hertfordshire
WD18 6LB

Starting from Watford Cycle Hub, we follow an on and off road route that passes the three Watford Stations and continues out along the route of the Abbey Flyer Line, passing Watford North, Garston and Bricket Wood stations on the way to St Albans to stop for refreshments at the Inn on the Park cafe set in the beautiful surroundings of Verulamium Park. The return ride route takes us past St Albans Abbey Station and out to Park Street and How Wood stations to then turn at Bricket Wood to follow the cycle path and quiet suburban roads passing the North Watford allotments, the award winning Cheslyn Gardens and through to Cassiobury Park to return to Watford Cycle Hub.

This is a Challenging with an average pace of about 10-11 mph over the route. This route is designed to give you a relaxed, longer ride to the Cathedral City, using some of the National Cycle Route 6/61 (Ebury/Alban/Abbey Way) showing you somewhere lovely to retreat to & how to get there bypassing busy roads. A great ride for all who want to increase their distance & gain some quiet road practice in good company. :)

Please bring a spare inner tube as changing an inner tube is faster than fixing a puncture. Watford Cycle Hub sell inner tubes from £4 new should you need to purchase one. Please check your bike is in good working order before the ride - especially that your brakes are working & your tyres are pumped. You can also come along early before the ride to use our track pump, or we can help get your tyres to the correct pressure for you pre-ride. :)

We are Not-For-Profit and do free bike assessments should your bike need checking over, or be in need of a service. :)
