Moretonhamstead and Whiddon Down training ride

Join us for a 30 mile very challenging hilly route perfect training for summer sportives and triathlons We will leave Exeter, head along Cowick Street and up Dunsford Hill before the long and very picturesque climb to Moretonhampstead. This is a favourite route amongst local cyclists. Once we have reached Moreton we will head across the moor to the village of Whiddon Down. The journey back to Exeter will be faster as we start heading (mostly) downhill through Crockernwell and Tedburn St. Mary. The route back to exeter takes us along the old A30 and can be quite fast if you want to stretch your legs out. Finally up Poccombe Hill and back down Dunsford Hill to home. This ride is recommended for those who want a friendly training ride with like-minded women, to try something with more challenge, learn a new route or gain confidence on the road. The average speed will be 12-14mph and so road bikes are strongly recommended. Bring plenty to drink and a spare inner tube. Look forward to seeing you there!
