RIDE THE ELEPHANT Big thanks to all test riders, especially to Maria and Anita, also not forgetting Alex Charles who did the original. I only re-planned and tweaked it to make it more rider friendly for my group.
Very flat ride on mostly quiet roads, cycleways and a little trail, compacted gravel, with a couple of short ramps.
Rest stop Fausto's Coffee, at 16 mile, approx. halfway.
Bring: helmet, tools, 2 tubes, waterproofs (even in good weather) and lights for your bike, also enough food and drink for hydration and energy. For the safety and enjoyment of all riders please do not pass the leader unless you know the road ahead, watch you don't cross wheels or follow to close, especially downhill sections. Please shout back any warnings given (bollards etc.) shout out stopping if you stop suddenly. check your bike is roadworthy, that you are capable of the route mileage.
