Sunflowers at Rotherwick from FBC

The warm weather should make this a good year for sunflowers! This is my shortest route from FBC to Rotherwick (going across Bramshill Forest) so it should be suitable for most riders. Although we do have to come back up Plough Lane, this is the biggest hill and our route will take us along beautiful country lanes through the village of Rotherwick to the amazing Sunflower Patch (after 10 miles) where we can stop for photos. There are toilets and refreshments available at the patch, or please bring a snack just in case. Alternatively, we can stop for coffee at the Mutton Pub on our way back (after 14.5 miles of cycling.)

Mainly country lanes, with 2 short sections on busier roads and an off-road track across the forest (all dry at the moment.)

You must please wear a cycle helmet and please bring with you: money or card to pay for refreshments, bottle of water, a spare inner tube to fit your bike and a pump and bike lock if you have them.

We never leave anyone behind
