An exploration of Greater Manchester cycling facilities. All starts can be reached by train or metrolink . Note that only folding bikes can be taken on the tram.
The rides are suitable for all sorts of bikes, including skinny-tyred road bikes, and folding bikes, although a gravel bike would be ideal. You can even bring an electric-assist bike provided you check that you have enough charge for the intending distance!
There is no entry fee for these rides, just bring some cash or cards as we’ll have a cae stop or two along the way. All we ask is that you have 3rd party insurance, such as that provided to members of CyclingUK. British Cycling or National Clarion.
