Does anyone know any flat routes in Sedgefield area please.
Currently doing 20 miles a week but looking to go for more.
Cheers Marty

Hi Marty you've got the castle Eden near you it goes all the way up to Sunderland it's mostly flat. Quite happy to meet one day if you fancy it?

Sunderland seems a long ride for me but I could give it a go. How long would a novice like me take to cycle that distance.
It would be good to have some company if you don't mind coming with a beginner. I can only do long rides on a weekend mornings.
I could head for Sunderland and see how far I am prepared to go.

I didn't mean for you to ride all the way to sunderland Marty, just go so far then turn round. I don't know sedgefield that well so not sure what would be the best for your wife. I'm happy to go out with you Marty any exercise is better than none, plus I will be riding from Aycliffe so its still a few files extra from me. Look forward to hearing from you!

If the weather is ok Saturday I will be out on my bike. I would like the company of another rider to keep me company on long rides. If you want to plan the route and where we should meet I can be there. I have only been about 20 miles in one ride but I will see how far I can go.
Just hope the weather is ok.

hey marti
not a flat route(no such thing)..lol but poss use part of this route we do some times to seaham http://connect.garmin.com/activity/152778441 you could mix it with the castle eden route either go to seaham viathe road and return on the castle eden or the other way round the roads are minor and little traffic on w/ends (sun)
hope this helps in some way ...would like to join you some time but wed i am down for a eye opp so will see how things go will get back to you ..;-)

The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought you have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention. Write Your Way To Freedom Review
