1 hours 45 mins  (1 hours 0 mins cycling)
Bike Type You probably don’t want to drag your road bike across bumpy trails. Maybe you want to make the most of the suspension on your mountain bike. This helps you match your ride to your bike.

The ride starts on the new purpose built Tameside Cycle Circuit, heading through the delights of Daisy Nook Country Park to the Park Bridge Heritage Centre and then returning via a long swooping descent following an old railway line back to Ashton.  If you still have the legs at the end of this great ride then why not try a few laps on the cycle circuit?
