Starting point




Wiltshire
SN2 2QP

Week 6 of the Couch to 100km in 10 weeks sees us venture north to Cirencester to visit the Oddsocks Café. We will leave Moredon Sports Hub at 09:00hrs, traveling out to the ‘closed road’ via our usual route (no road works on A419 this week). We will then make our way up through Chelworth (only a small rise) and across to the outskirts of Minety on mainly quiet country roads. We then head north to Ewin, skirting the western edges of the Cotswold Water Park, arriving at the café on the southern edge of the town at approx. 19miles (30.5km). The return leg sees us return to the Moredon Sports Hub via the eastern side of the Cotswold Water Park, with the projected NE wind blowing us home.

The total ride is 37.2m (60km) with a projected 995ft elevation.

Can we please aim to be at Moredon Sports Hub for around 08:45hrs, so we are able to set off at 09:00hrs.

Please bring a bottle for your bike with your favourite thirst quencher and snacks to keep you going. For all your rides we recommend that you bring a spare inner tube that is suitable for your bike, plus a pump. If your wheels are bolted on, then please bring a spanner that fits your bike’s wheel nuts. You should dress appropriately for the weather and consider bringing your mobile phone along with cash or a debit card for the cafe. Some places only accept card payments these days.

We do welcome anyone to join us and ride with us, whether this is your first time or someone who has participated on previous rides. We will never leave anyone behind.

We look forward to seeing you on the ride!
