Nottingham (Colwick) #1033 Free
A 15.63 km, 37 minute single-stage route reaching out to Burton Joyce and Stoke Bardolph through Colwick, Netherfield, Rivendell and Carlton. It is the longest of these Colwick routes and the only one here to include a 60 mph stretch alongside 30 and 40 mph sections, so open-road speed control matters.
Watch Out For
- The faster 60 mph rural section out near Nottingham Road.
- A pedestrian crossing near Main Street.
- A school area with reduced limit near Main Street.
Route Features
- Six roundabouts; give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- A 40 mph run signed near Trent Valley Road.
- A cycle lane near Colwick Loop Road.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the test centre approach.
Key Tips
- Build up smoothly to 60 mph only where it is signed, then ease off for the village limits.
- Cover the brake near the pedestrian crossing and school area.
