Sunday ride to Shuttleworth

17th December 2023 @ 9:30 am - 1:30 pm

This ride will be led by Keith Curtis and tail-ended by Ian Dunckley

Rescheduled from 2nd December because of heavy frost, Members and Associates can now use this link to request a place on Keith’s ride on Sunday 17th December. Apart from the change of date the details of the ride are unchanged from the details provided previously…

Heading out from Caxton Gibbet we make our way through Yelling, Graveley and the Offords to cross the A1 at Buckden.  Following a series of B roads we skirt the edge of Bedford before crossing the A421 and pass through Great Barford before turning off and making our way along some minor roads to our breakfast stop at The Shuttleworth Runway Café (menu). The outward journey is ~41 miles

After breakfast we have a shorter ride back to Caxton Gibbet: skirting Shefford & passing through Henlow Camp, we will bypass Potton and take the back road out of Gamlingay. Heading through Longstowe we pick up the A1198 to our finishing point in a layby a stone’s throw from where we began. Cognisant of the potential for inclement weather and lower temperatures at this time of year, this is a shorter ride, with the return leg ~32 miles

This ride is limited to 12 bikes
