オールドコットとスタイラップのおすすめライド

June 2025 - they've covered the road with chip and seal which is very loose and has formed mounds in places. It's not too bad going up but wouldn't recommend a descent.

The very old Stone Bridge over the river Idle just outside Eaton. A lovely place to stop and have a minute. There are walking trails along the river back to Ordsall. It's very picturesque and quiet at this spot.

This place is really in the middle of nowhere, it's at the junction of Thornhill Lane and Littleborough Road. It can't be missed because there's nutting else there. What makes it special is its unique six sided shape. Definitely a place of note and worth a photo.

Worth stopping for these beautiful murals by Phoebe Traquair

Britain's greatest male professional cyclist until recently. A tragic story and lovely to see his grave so well kept. See also the memorial stone nearby.

Friendly and great cakes and coffee

Called in yesterday, great coffee, lovely setting. Advertised Christmas Market sounds tempting too.

Always a great stop off point! Great selection of meals, plenty of room for the bikes, nice to sit outside when it's warm or inside with a roaring log fire when it's chilly.
