Breeze from Wellington to the Basingstoke Canal

Leaving Wellington College we will ride mainly on cycle paths to Sandhurst Memorial Park and out onto the Blackwater Valley Path. From here it is mainly off road and so not suitable for thin road tyres. This route is mostly flat. We will go at a steady pace, which will allow us to enjoy the lovely scenery and possibly spot a rook paddling in a brook! We will stop at the Basingstoke Canal Visitor Centre where we can enjoy some refreshment, hopefully sitting outside. We will then retrace our route back to Sandhurst Memorial Park, head through Snaprails Park and back to the start. Please note if there is a lot of rain before the ride it may have to be postponed. Please dress for the weather and bring a waterproof, a drink, money for the refreshment stop and a spare inner tube.
