About this ride

Our route takes us from Thornton Hough to Raby, Ledsham, Dunkirk Road, Little Stanney to Mickle Trafford, Guilden Sutton taking care crossing the A51 through Waverton and onto Long Lane through Hargrave towards Tattenhall, Lunch at Alison’s Country Kitchen. Approximately 25 miles.

After lunch, leaving Tattenhall we will travel through Gatesheath. At the A41 we will ride along the pavement for a short distance before crossing the A41 onto Platt Lane. This is a very busy main road so take great care when crossing. From Platt Lane we will head towards Saignton and Huntington around the outskirts of Chester to eventually join the Greenway back to Neston. Riders will probably go their own way home from the Marsh Gate. 

Approximately 25 miles, there are no high elevated areas on this ride with the exception of a gentle rise around Chester which provides excellent views of the river Dee.
