Manchester on Two Wheels
From the cobbled lanes of the Northern Quarter to the sweeping greenways of the Mersey Valley, Greater Manchester holds far more cycling territory than most people ever discover. These routes are here to change that.
About This ProjectRoutes for Every Kind of Rider
Whether you're threading through city traffic on a weekday commute or chasing a long Sunday ride out toward Saddleworth, there's a route shaped around your pace and purpose. We've mapped and ridden them ourselves, so what you get is honest — including the hills nobody warns you about.
- Urban commuter routes — fast, direct, and traffic-aware across the city centre
- Canal towpath trails — flat, scenic, and ideal for all abilities
- Leisure and family rides — quieter roads and traffic-free paths in the suburbs
- Challenging day rides — heading into the Pennines and Peak District fringes
