Starting point

B4 7UL

Front entrance of Moor St Station

The aim is to have an enjoyable and  leisurely day out cycling. The ride will be a 26-8 mile ride at a steady pace of 8-10 mph for ladies who are confident on their bike and are looking to make the step up from the "easy" rides and travel further afield without speeding up and with lots of stops!.  This ride takes us out of Birmingham via the Fazeley Canal (a brilliant surface compared with the canal towpath to Catherine de Barnes on our Warwick outing!) and then through parks and a nature reserve to Sutton Park for our first rest/cafe stop. The route will then take us mainly on gentle country lanes to Lichfield. We’ll aim to be in Lichfield around lunch time – where you can have a bite to eat in a local hostelry or at Lichfield's Food Festival in the market place and then spend as much or as little time as you like looking around Lichfield before making your own way back to Birmingham on the train OR, for those wanting the extra challenge, cycling back to Brum at a slightly faster pace of 10-12mph Helmets are recommended but not compulsory.  Please bring a drink and snacks, plus a spare inner tube and cash for train ticket home and for any refreshments you want to buy. I look forward to sharing a great day out with you Gaye Any queries or if weather looks a bit iffy ring Gaye on 07738334271
