Kirkby-in-Ashfield Station to Hucknall Station
A quiet, mostly green suburban route on shared paths, cycle tracks and quiet streets with plenty of tree cover, plus small stretches of pavement by busy roads and a short field path. It is largely level and step- and stile-free, with one short and slightly rough and steep section descending through a wood east of the A611. Largely follows old railway paths and cycletracks. Kirkby and Hucknall are linked by the Robin Hood line and the Trentbarton Threes bus.
Tough: steep ascents. 9km.
A short, steep and slightly rough wooded section east of the A611, with side paths to ignore, may be tough for heavier wheels.
