Art Deco
Start 6.30pm SHUSU Hubs Paternoster Row S1 2QQ
Ride Leader: Jeff Carroll
Theme: Jeff has curated a set of Art Deco sites in Sheffield for us to ride to, look at and enjoy. Art Deco was a movement from between the world wars that was stylish, modern and innovative with materials. This ride takes us to some of the suburbs of Sheffield where examples of art deco housing and factories were built as well as sites where redevelopments were built in Art Deco style, eg we start on Paternoster Row opposite the Showroom which used to be the Art Deco Kennings Garage (strewth! I even remember renting a car from there – the view below is from Sheaf St)
Map – about 14 miles
Heads Up! Some climbing up to Norton and then some great descending – all on roads a paths
