Blues at the Barn

To get the Bank Holiday off to a flying start on Saturday the Blues are going to Offley Hoo for a visit to the Barn Cafe. We’ll start at the Oval Cafe in Harpenden, heading out through Kimpton and Whitwell to Offley Hoo and then back to Harps via Kimpton again.

The route is mostly on quiet lanes with a bit of B-road riding.

The Barn Cafe serves a range of savoury and sweet treats including waffles.
