Leeds Art Gallery, The Headrow (LS1 3AA)

A ride from Leeds to Alwoodley picking up National Route 668 on the way.

We will aim to stop at Espresso Cafe for lunch but other options are available.

Check WhatsApp or this website in case of bad weather.

Join us for the second Urban Easy Ride of the year for a ride out to Skelton Lake Services (where we'll stop for refreshments) via the river path and returning via Pontecraft Lane. John McDermott will be leading with me or John Barber sweeping. We meet at the usual place (outside Leeds Central library)  and time (10:15) for a 10:30 setting off. Please check the weather forcast the day before!

Join us for the first Urban Easy Ride of the year to Middleton Park (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/54336881) from Leeds Central Library. Our route will take us out via Dewsbury Road and back via Hunslet Road with a stop in or near Middleton Park. It's a relatively short ride but with a steady gradient along Balm Rd / Belle Isle Road, so we'll be taking it easy.

The start point is the usual place by the chess boards under the big wheel if it is still there. It is 6 miles to the cafe stop (Eutopos - meaning utopia), then another 7 miles back to Boar Lane/City Square.  

The cafe menu is extensive so here is a heads up to view it:

Come and join us for ride out to the New Inn at Eccup and Xmas lunch! Leaving from near the Henry Moore (the spot near the library is currently overshadowed by the big wheel). For those wanting to head back into town, we'll go back via Eccup resevoir and Moortown.  It took me just under an hour to reach the pub from town and lunch is from noon.

Join us for a trip out of town to the lovely Temple Newsam country park following route 66 and a break there tbefore returning back into town via CS2. It's a leisurely 12 miles round trip.
