Starting point

RG22 5SN

Down Grange Sports Complex Pack Lane Basingstoke Hampshire

Starting by the car park at the main entrance to Down Grange Sports Complex, we turn left onto Pack Lane and continue out to Oakley. Once through the village, we take quiet roads to North Waltham and cross the A33 and go over the M3 to head up(and up!) :) through first Dummer and then to the top of Farleigh Wallop. Fairly flat to start, then climb the whole way from the A33 with a couple of easier sections. A good 13 mile loop for a quick Sunday morning spin. Opportunity to extend the route and throw in some more hills, if ladies have time and the energy. This is less total hills than the 13 mile Ellisfield loop, some of you ladies have done but the hill(s) are really in one main section. Suit those with some base fitness who have started to challenge themselves on hills and are comfortable with the faster pace of 13mph including the hills(and faster riders who're willing to be social-you can challenge yourselves but wait at the top of hills). Please check that your bike is road worthy and tyres inflated to the correct pressure, before leaving home: bring a spare inner tube( roads flinty; more likely to get puncture's). Helmet recommend Hope to see you there Linda
