wildnorthlands Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Sustrans Rangers are having a busy weekend this weekend, so I thought we'd better let as many people as possible know what's going on. On Saturday the 4th, we have a clean-up at the Manor Way access point to the National Cycle Network. We'd like get local people out and get as many people on the case as possible, so if you live locally, why not come along? If you have access to local community groups please let them know about this. Meet at the green space at Manor Way, at 10a.m and we aim to be off-site by 2. If additional litter-picking equipment is needed please let me know as I can loan this from Parks and Woodlands. There will be monthly clean-ups and rides on the NCN throughout the spring and summer on the first Monday of the month and I have a mailing list for interested parties. On Sunday 5th, we are anticipating that the Bridge lift for the Connect2 scheme will take place at 10 a,m. For a bike ride to the site meet at Rother Valley Country Park cafe at 09:30. There are limited viewing facilities on-site so we anticipate that we may have to watch from afar. After the Bridge Lift, there will be a Sustrans Ranger ride to Rotherham following the NCN Route. From Rotherham there will be a walking (bike pushing) route inspection of the route from Rotherham to Meadowhall. Owners of folding bikes can catch the 0834 Tram from Cathedral/stops in between to Halfway, arriving Halfway at 0909 (de-tram at Waterthorrpe for a traffic-free route to Rother Valley.) Otherwise it's a one-hour ride out on NCN6/67. There's plenty of c*r parking at Rother Valley of course. The best that the weather people can tell us for the weekend so far is that it's likely to be cold so wrap up warm!
