Stubbington - Gosport loop via the Eclipse

Our ride will start from Stubbington green heading out along a cycle path onto quiet roads before joining the NCR 2 cycle path opposite Daedalus airport. We follow the path through Lee on the Solent with views out over the Solent and the Isle of Wight. Onto Stokes bay and the outskirts of Gosport where we will pick up the end of the eclipse path before heading to our coffee stop, called the Pump House. Our return route is via the Eclpise ( Henry Cort way) which is for buses, cyclist and emergency service vehicles only. At the end of this we will be back onto quiet roads and cycle paths. We may have to walk our bikes a short way passed the road works in Mays lane.
