We were back to the colder weather as winter draws to a close. Sarah had once again been out for a long-run and we considered not cycling. In the end, we were glad we did. This cycle route out to Little Bollington provided a few pleasant surprises. After leaving home, we began by weaving our way through Davenport and Cheadle. We joined NCN Route 558 and followed this for a while. At Heald Green, we picked up the Airport Orbital…
With the spring-like weather continuing, Sarah and I were keen to make the most of it and enjoy a weekend cycle ride. Sarah had already run an impressive 11 miles before we set off on our way out towards Great Warford. It was a sunny day but with a slight chill in the air. Our route began by heading out through Woodsmoor Then Bramhall and Cheadle Hulme. We briefly picked up a section of the A555, the Airport Bypass. Before…

Thankfully, the good weather was continuing. So having enjoyed a leisurely cuppa at Benjamin’s and watched the world go by, it was time to leave say goodbye to Nicholl and leave Whitchurch. Our route began by climbing back over the hill towards Marbury. Soon we were back on route…
After enjoying our time in Chester, Cheshire Cycleway Day 3 would take us to Whitchurch and would be our longest and hilliest day so far. Thankfully, it was another cool but dry and cloudy morning. So, we picked up the Shropshire Union canal again and headed out of the city. We left the canal at Christleton and cycled through the village. Sarah, Andy and I remember cycling this section of Regional Network 70, from Christleton to Huxley, when taking part…
It had been a cold night. So, it was a cool but thankfully dry and sunny morning when we left Little Leigh. Our Cheshire Cycleway Day 2 route would take us to Chester. Our route today would be gentle and reasonably short. So, without rushing and taking our time, we left the Hollybush Inn around mid-morning. Having stayed slightly off-route, our first section of cycling meant picking up Regional Cycle Route 70 again. Back on course, our route began by…
