Roundhay Park (old tram terminus)

Main car park (former tram terminus for Roundhay Park), at the junction of Prince’s Avenue and Lidgett Park Road (near main park gates/skate park).

Intermediate Ride to Fariburn Ings

Out through the City Centre passing near Temple Newsam. Mainly good tarmac cycling paths through and beyond the Centre. Pass under the M1 on a quiet road to the Aire /Calder navigation and through St Aidan’s nature reserve to Allerton Bywater. Compact ground covered with a fine gravel but ok for road bikes. Limited options for a coffee stop. Possibility at Carlton View Sandwich Bar (13 Miles) - good value breakfast type fare. Continuing on tracks and quiet roads to Fairburn Ings. Sandwiches, flapjacks and coffee machine here. Return to Kippax then more off-road to Garforth, Cross Gates.
