    How very cryptic, I assume your talking about the Hadrian Cycleway across the front of it or the track to the leisure center behind? or keelman way on south side?

    In the interest of clarity, I am not nor own a fatty 😆

    south bank of the river near the entrance to the united rowing club track goes past a metal gate heading up river but not either of the riverbank tracks

    Fecksake does EVERYONE on this forum live near me then? 😀

    South side of the river is Keelman’s Way (NCN 141) which goes through Ryton Willows nature reserve.

    Thanks Graham

    looks interesting diversion from the keelmas way that i guess that any tracks on the willows are “special” tracks

    Yeah they are probably designated as footpaths but I doubt you’ll see anyone that cares as long as you ride them sensibly.

    Good answer!

    Mtb. Ride all year around. Lots of exposure light on show in winter.

    Righto. If I ever get myself back onto the MTB and allowed back to the pub (i.e. after the “new baby” years) then I’ll drop in.

    Someone’s going to be pleased knowing that their distinguishing features are their spots and their bicycle 😉

    I may well have said hello last week before legging it out to the beer garden. It’s been too warm inside the pub the past few weeks.
