Breeze to the Spire Cafe

We begin outside Headstone Manor Cafe where there are toilets and car parking. We ride through quiet streets around North Harrow to approach Harrow on the Hill from Middle Street, at the bottom of Roxeth Hill. This is one of our oldest areas with plenty of interesting houses, as well as Harrow School. There is a hill to climb but you can walk it if you like, and we always stop and regroup so no one is ever left behind. We'll have well-earned refreshments at the Spire Cafe, which is fundraising to repair the church Spire and features delicious home-made goodies both sweet and savoury. After the break we descend the hill and return via Harrow Recreation Ground to Headstone Manor.

Before you come please check your bike over to ensure it's roadworthy: pump up the tyres and ensure the brakes work and the wheels turn. Take it to a bike shop if you're not sure. Bring water, a bike lock and money for the cafe. All women are welcome. If you have any queries please message the ride leader.
