A fairly gentle loop from Darlington on fairly quiet roads. Need to take care crossing A66 near Darlington Football ground, and also joining the A167 in Great Smeaton. A couple of short sharpish climbs but nothing too bad. | |

Did this loop this morning. Surprised by how quiet the roads were and passed some nice little villages (couple of inviting looking pubs for those not in a hurry) too. I don't have a cycle computer but it's no way 40 miles, more like 40 km and took me about three hours starting from and returning to the middle of Darlington. A recommended ride out and not too hilly which is always nice!! | ||

Just checked it on bing maps and its about 29 miles, don't know how the 40 miles ended up on there originally. Glad u like the route though, loads of good routes to the south of darlo! | ||

Coming back from injury so did this over 2 days, so split the route at North Cowton and headed up to Dalton-on-tees. Lovely ride, roads quiet and in reasonable condition. Would make a lovely figure of 8 as the route from the cowtons to dalton-on-tees is a terrific few miles. | ||
