Saturday was the SCCC Sale Water Park Afternoon Ride. We met at North Reddish Park.

We set off an made our way onto the Fallowfield Loop or the Manchester Cycleway as it is also called.

We passed past Sainsbury’s at Fallowfield and then continued along the Manchester Cycleway.

At then end of the Manchester Cycleway, we passed St Werburgh’s tram station.

Having crossed over the tram line, we made our way to and through Chorlton Park.

Leaving Chorlton Park, we then headed to Sale Water Park.

We crossed over the River Mersey near the Jackson’s Boat pub.

We then followed the lane down past Sale Water Park tram stop.

We stopped at the Cafe Metro for refreshments.

After some refreshments, we headed back to North Reddish Park. Our route took us back the way that we had come out.

Back through Chorlton Park

Onwards to the Manchester Cycleway.

As we came off the Fallowfield Loop, we cycled along Longford Road West for a short time before turning off into an entrance to North Reddish Park.

We had cycled about 13 miles, which was slightly longer than a normal Saturday Afternoon ride but we had all enjoyed it. You can see out route below:
