28 miles FBC to Mortimer

This route is mostly through lovely lanes and villages going to Farley Hill, Swallowfield, Riseley, Stratford Saye and West End Green stopping at Mortimer Bistro for coffee and snacks (lovely cakes). Return journey is round Wokefield Park to Grazeley Green, round Three Mile Cross, Shinfield then towards Arborfield back to FBC.

The ride is listed as CHALLENGING as there are a number of short steepish hills, so unsuitable for those who are just starting out. Please aim to arrive 10 mins before our start time so that we can do a quick bike check, and get under way on time.

Please ensure your bike is in good working order, tyres correctly inflated, it will make cycling easier, brakes working, and chain oiled. Cycle helmets are compulsory. Please also bring a bottle of water, money/card for the coffee stop, spare inner tube, and bike lock if you have one.
