Steady from Newton 25.5, a Winter warmer, possible coffee at the lovely Maddingley Hall.

An easy route with a few undulations. 25.5 miles which is often plenty this time of year! You need to be comfortable riding this distance, at a pace that we can all keep warm.

Fairly flat ride, from Newton, Haslingfield, Barton, cotton, Madingley Hall,Caldecote, Toft, Comberton. 707ft elevation.

Mainly quiet roads, one or two slightly busier, for short distances, cycle path from Barton towards Coton.

Possible stop for coffee at Madingley Hall, at about 10 miles in. If not at Newton Days bakery at the end, but I cannot reserve a table there, it is pot luck!

Helmert, bike lock, lights, means to mend a puncture, bright clothing. Bike in good working order, and tyres in good condition, please.

We never leave anyone behind
