About the route

Starting point

NN5 4DR

This is a leisurely social ride, aiming for 11-12 mph. We will aim to stay together as a group for the whole ride, and ride at the pace of the slowest rider. There are some challenging hills, so a good level of 'bike fitness' is recommended, but we will stop and rest and take in the views when needed. This is a mixture of cyclepaths (tarmacced) and roads, so probably more suited to hybrid/gravel bikes or mountain bikes (and hence the moderate speed).
**
The outward route starts by heading out through Duston, Boughton, Moulton, Overstone, and back via Ecton and Little Houghton before joining the cycle path again towards Sixfields and then back to St Crispins. There are options for where we can stop near Sywell or Billing , which we can discuss on the day
**

Please bring a helmet (compulsory), spare tube and pump, and money for a drink.
