This time we’re heading to Paradise Island – Sri Lanka!

Although only 17 miles separate Sri Lanka from India, the cuisine has its own unique identity. Rich in aromatic spices, packed with flavour and centred around delicious rice-based dishes, Sri Lankan food is a true hidden gem. Many who try it believe it can stand proudly alongside any cuisine in the world.

To make things easy, we’ll be enjoying a specially prepared set menu, with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options available.

Expect to sample some of Sri Lanka’s most loved favourites, including:
Hoppers
String Hoppers
Kothu Roti
Traditional Ceylon tea with a selection of delicious short eats

We’ll ease ourselves in with some quiet back roads to get the legs warmed up before heading towards St George’s and taking the fifth turning left towards the farm. We’ll have a short stop there to refuel, take a few photos and enjoy the countryside. From there we’ll continue through Headstone Lane, West Harrow and North Harrow before taking an extended loop towards Rayners Lane. After a quick water stop, we’ll make our way to Saravanaa Bhavan. After our delicious brunch we head towards North Harrow and return to Hatch End via St George 5th Distance: Approximately 20 km Terrain: Mostly flat with a few gentle inclines Beginners are especially welcome. We ride as one group, never leave anyone behind, and I’ll be supported by two experienced ride leaders, so everyone can ride at a comfortable pace.

We never leave anyone behind
