Kenton to Elstree Aerodrome

Our route takes us out from Kenton up Kenton Lane and Clamp Hill before reaching Bushey Heath ready for the glorious descent down Little Bushey Lane. After passing through Letchmore Heath we reach the Aerodrome. We visit the cafe at Elstree Aerodrome with a chance to see the aircraft taking off and landing. The return is via Watling Street which can have fast vehicles then back via Stanmore.

The route has significant hills and stretches with busier traffic - sometimes both at the same time. Participants need to be confident cycling in these conditions. We will cycle at a moderate pace.

Duration 180 minutes including a break.

Check your bike before the ride. Bring a spare innertube (check it's the correct size), a pump and tools to replace an inner tube.

The time for the ride is a best estimate by the Ride Leader. Sometimes this can be affected by factors such as the weather, mechanical issues, the queue at the cafe, etc. We have a policy of leaving no rider behind so, if anyone is struggling, we will adjust the speed and take rest stops if necessary.
