Chester Greenway

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Really good east/west route across north of Chester. Like any urban area, it tends to get busy with walkers/joggers and dog walkers at weekends, but weekdays are a lot less busy. Very good surface,with plenty of on/off access points throughout.

First solo bike ride. Glad that I remembered the route from when I last did it with Dave & Stevie. Had a short break at the same place we stopped at. A great way to start the weekend. Plenty of cyclists out and about.
