This is a leisurely social ride, aiming for around 11-12mph. We will aim to stay together as a group for the whole ride, and ride at the pace of the slowest rider. Please do not sign up unless you are prepared to do that.
**
Please make sure you are ready to leave on time, especially the leader!

The route takes us through Pineham Village, Rothersthorpe, Blisworth, Roade and Hartwell to Salcey Forest. We return via Quinton, Wooton, Collingtree, Milton Malsor and West Hunsbury.
**
There are a couple of short sections on main roads, but they are wide enough to allow vehicles to pass easily. There is also a potentially busy junction between Collingtree and Wooton, but we can dismount if necessary.
