Gunthorpe Bridge to East Bridgford Back Road

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Sweet little back road from Gunthorpe bridge to East Bridgford. Traffic free to the west, access only at the eastern end, so very quiet. Great way of avoiding the main road. Watch out for flooding after heavy rain though, as the bottom end is at water level.
Tip: keep a gear ready for the last bit where it ramps up suddenly.

Caffe Velo Verde

Highlight • Cafe

Fantastic cafe! 100% cycle friendly (aside from the gravel to wear down your cleats). Located on the same site as an eco centre with lots of outside seating. Plenty of space indoors too. Designated bike racks decorated with race numbers outside. Coffee enthusiasts paradise with many types to choose from including novelty beverages such as "espresso tonic". Cakes were divine with vegan and gluten free options. Also the breakfast sandwiches and paninis are meant to be pretty epic. Indoors has a large social table for large groups or smaller groups wanting to socialise with new people.
