There is a pathway suitable for biking on the right side of the Newburn Bridge as you head south. The traffic was quiet on this day and not many cars …

Nice section of track running adjacent to Ryton Golf Course. Good compact surface, up and down slightly but fun and good views

Beautiful but narrow bridge. Just keep cycling if you don't want to get into trouble with cars.
