This ride starts in Attenborough and flows through the peaceful nature reserve, following the river with lush views all around. We join the canal path for a smooth stretch—mostly tarmac with a hint of gravel—before crossing the Trent and dropping into the gorgeous Clifton Woods. Expect bluebells, a short off-road climb, and river paths worth pausing for. We loop back through the reserve to finish, legs stretched, heads cleared. Mostly off-road, super scenic, and the perfect midweek reset.
