All-day ride to the Cotswolds

13th August 2023 @ 9:00 am - 7:30 pm

Full members are warmly invited to join Chris Curryer on an all-day ride taking in the rolling Cotswolds & Chilterns hills

Departs: 9:00am from Gulf Station, Barton, CB23 7AW
Finishes: ~7:30pm at McDonalds, Royston, SG8 9NT

Request a place: contact Chris by email or ☎ 07802 497187

Chris describes his plan for the day:

The route takes use through Woburn Park, then on to the A5 to The Super Sausage Café for a coffee stop. Buckingham, Ayhno, Moreton in Marsh, Chipping Campden & Broadway follow before we ascend Fish Hill, a famous biking road, and power on Bourton on the Water. Known as the Venice of the Cotswolds, this is our lunch stop and we have time to walk round this enchanting English village, or visit its small motor museum (or even tinier model village!)

After riding Cotswold lanes through Bibury & Burford, we head back through Bicester & Thame, stopping for afternoon tea along the way. We pass near RAF Halton, then take trunk roads (A41>M25>A1>A505) to Royston after a total distance of ~265 miles

If you live in the west of the county we can meet you at Baldock Services at 9:30am. Please let me know where you intend to join the ride
