    Possible obstacles No major problems with this route, it is familiar to most of us, we will take extra care when crossing any main roads or major junctions we will look for pedestrian crossings / islands and traffic lights.

    Hazards Riding a bicycle on public roads is inherently a risk, from busy traffic, you can mitigate those risks by being aware of other road users and anticipating their likely actions. If you have not done so then please do read the WCG guide and Risk Assessment policy

    Trains On the outward leg there a number of Merseyrail stations that will take you to Wirral. After lunch the Wrexham to Heswall train will get you back, (Buckley 12.29 or 13.57 or Shotton) I would advise you to bring money for both your lunch and the train should you choose to use them.
