Friendly, cosy cafe in Goverton, near Bleasby. There are around 5 cycle racks with very small locks and key so you can lock your cycle up without worrying about it being stolen. The coffee and Chocolate orange cake were delicious! The tea shoppe has a beautiful enclosed garden full of flowers and wild birds. There is a toilet available to use. I would definitely recommend stopping by here for a coffee when on a ride. Visited in April 2025, opening hours are Wednesday - Sunday, 9am-4pm.

Gets busy and they end breakfast at 11.30. Missed out on bacon roll/cob

Lovely stretch of road to ride with a Westerly.

This fine old blacksmiths forge dates back to 1845 and has a horseshoe surrounding the entrance. It's a Grade II listed building.

Nice little climb. Good for benchmarking or friendly battle with friends. Not too long and has a sting in the tail. 99% car free.

Quieter alternative to Spring Lane, which tends to be driven like it's a motorway. Keep your brakes well fettled for the steep bit at the bottom.

Sweet little back road from Gunthorpe bridge to East Bridgford. Traffic free to the west, access only at the eastern end, so very quiet. Great way of avoiding the main road. Watch out for flooding after heavy rain though, as the bottom end is at water level. Tip: keep a gear ready for the last bit where it ramps up suddenly.

The Minster is spectacular

My favourite stretch when cycling on the quiet lanes from Newark to Gunthorpe on the north side of the river. There is also an enjoyable riverside walk to this point from the car-park at Gunthorpe, past the locks and weir.

I use this scenic section of the lane regularly. Make it part of a loop between Gunthorpe and Newark, going SW on this lane and back up the lanes on the other side of the Trent, avoiding the A46

Shelford Road heading out of Radcliffe on Trent heading northeast towards Shelford. It's not much of a hill but it reaches just over 60m so you get a bit of a view back towards Nottingham and over the River Trent.

Regularly use this quiet lane when returning SW from Newark towards Bingham and the Vale of Belvoir. Also next to a lovely riverside walk between Hoveringham and Gunthorpe

The route itself is flat with some gently rolling hills, and views for miles!

Very popular with Witham Wheelers and for good reason.

Great views of the River Trent

Nice little hill close to Nottingham.

Lovely location on the Trent. Lots of easy, flat, traffic-free roads around here. Regularly use this as a lunch stop on rides in the southern half of the Vale of Belvoir. There is an easy 30 mile loop to Newark and back, going through quiet lanes up one side of the Trent and back down the other. I have used the riverside Unicorn pub as an overnight base for cycle-touring in this area.

Very nice cycle Lane running alongside the Trent.

Very nice village next to the Trent. Easily accessed by the cycle way. Suitable for all riders.

Very quiet lanes good width and easy for cars to get past. We were blessed with a tailwind which was very welcome.
