Lanhydrock to Laddock Loop

We meet at Lanhydrock Hotel and Golf Club, with free parking and shower/changing facilities available. This ride is for ladies who are experienced / confident riding on sometimes busier roads although we are on quieter back roads for much of today's ride. We aim to average a minimum of 10-11mph overall for this ride. Our route today cannot be described as flat! There are two longer climbs, from the Laddock Valley to the top of Probus and then a little further on, past Scarcewater and up the road into Fraddon. From our start point we ride via Innis Downs, Victoria, Indian Queens, Laddock, Probus, Grampound Road, Fraddon, Tregoss, Roche and back via Reperry Cross to Lanhydrock. We will stop for refreshments on the way, there are a number of options and we are welcome to refuel at the golf club when we finish. Not suitable for MTBs or hybrids with off road tyres. I suggest road bikes, hybrids with a road set up and touring bikes. This ride might be ideal for those in training for longer cycling event or challenge. Pleas wear a helmet and bring a spare inner tube to fit your bike and some money for your refreshments.
