Current Participants: 0 space(s) available Leader: Paul Malloy
Ride: Grade C, approx 27 miles from West Kirby Merseyrail Station to Net’s, Burton.
Start Time: 10.30 am, I will be there from 10.15.
From West Kirby we will follow the North Wirral coast as closely as possible, keeping the water to our left as far as New Ferry. From there we will head across to the Dee coast via Bebington, Brimstage, Thornton Hough and Neston..

There is one short, steep uphill section on Bracken Lane past Brackenwood Golf Course. Most of the route is on good surfaces but there are cobbled sections by the docks and there may be blown sand on the Wallasey Embankment and short sections that are a bit gnarly. Road bikes should be OK, but a hybrid may be a better choice.
Service at Net’s is usually very good but if you wish to bring sandwiches there are plenty of places nearby to eat with views over the marshes. After lunch I will lead anyone back to West Kirby, if required.
