Bluebells and Castles

Description

100km cycling event starting from Broompark Picnic Area, Durham. Controls at Barnard Castle, Hownsgill Farm Tearooms and Broompark., plus 1 information control.

A trip from Durham to Barnard Castle to check your eyesight and appreciate the wonderful displays of bluebells. Plenty of off-road stretches, so fetch your gravel bikes.

There's loads of parking at Broompark, or it's a short ride out from Durham station (Redhills would be tougher than anything on the route, consider Potter's Bank if you are riding out from the station)
