Silk Willoughby Cycle Path

Highlight • Trail

There is a decent cycleway / path on the side of the main road into Sleaford from this southern entrance. I had to go back and forward on this path as further along there was another section of terribly bad muddy fields that would have stopped the bikes transmission and just clogged the bike up
