Starting in Bishops Waltham, we will also pass through Swanmore, Waltham Chase, Shedfield and Shirrell Heath. We will be cycling along some slightly busier roads for short distances, but much of this ride will be on quieter back roads in the countryside. The first half of the ride has a few lumps and bumps, but without any steep hills, and we can take a breather when we need to. There is no cafe stop on this ride, but you are welcome to join the leader for a well-earned coffee back at Josie's in Bishops Waltham at the end of the ride.
