Cycle Steps
This route is pretty flat and nearly all on tracks and tarmac. Although there is 3 mile of road from Wylam to Ovingham, this is very quiet. The route is ideal for an excellent day out with kids.
Landmarks/Pubs for lunch/Sites to see?
Several pubs on route. The birth place of George Stephenson, and Hagg Bridge is pretty impressive

These routes don't come with a guide like, turn left at so n so, go for a mile over bridge etc, making them nonsensical to strangers in the area. Basically a complete waste of time.
