09.03.2014. “ Erewash Valley Trail ” The return
For the most part of the return we are on bridleways and the disused Nottingham canal. Parts of the old canal have been filled in completely, Although some sections still hold water, and indeed fish. As you near the outskirts of Nottingham we are unfortunately pushed onto the roads and shared use footpaths. And then into another nature reserve just before the Trent Way path, Which then takes us back to Trent Lock ! our start point. A very enjoyable days cycling with perfect weather. 32 mls on the trail, added to the 16 mls on the Trent Way in the morning, 48 mls ! our longest trip to date.
