Newbie from Didsbury Manchester

Just bought my first road bike, any advice welcome. Will join a club eventually but not sure how good I need to get to join!
Anyone local that fancies a gentle ride out to show me the ropes please get in touch!

Welcome. Didsbury is a great place to cycle - there is only one hill

good cycling on the Cheshire plain but there's always Derbyshire nearby for the lumpy bits

Where ? Over the railway ?

Where ? Over the railway ?

Parrs Wood Road, Millgate Lane, Kingston Ave, Stenner Lane - all the same hill, if you can call it that
