Join us for a day out to Delamere Forest. We'll start the ride from Winsford Marina Car Park which has free parking What3words Location before setting off onto the Weaver Way, the Whitegate Way & along country lanes to Delamere Forest. (Unsure if toilets will be open at the start.) We'll stop for some refreshments at the half way point & the Delamere Forest Cafe, before continuing round the shared cycle paths within the forest & then back along the Whitegate Way, where if we have time we can stop for a second break at the Whitegate Cafe, before heading back to our cars. As much of this is on trails it will be more suited to a gravel/mountain bike. A hybrid with chunkier tyres would also be fine. I would not recommend skinny tyres.
