A 17 km, two-stage route from Mallusk taking around 32 minutes. With 13 right turns (matching Route 761 for the most right turns from this centre), this route heavily tests your ability to cross oncoming traffic safely. It heads northwest through Kingsmoss Road, Doagh Road, and Millbank Road before looping back via Knowehead Road and Horseshoe Road. Despite 20 total turns, it has only 3 roundabouts and 4 signals, so most junctions are uncontrolled.

Watch Out For

• 13 right turns. Most of these are at rural T-junctions without traffic lights. You must position correctly, check mirrors, and wait for a safe gap in oncoming traffic each time.
• Roughfort Road rural junctions. Limited visibility at several T-junctions. Use the peep-and-creep technique to see around hedgerows.
• School zone on Ballyclare Road. 20 mph during school hours. After navigating rural roads, the return to urban speeds requires attention.
