Starting point




London
EN5 4QT

For those that fancy venturing a little further afield, this is a lovely ride north of High Barnet to Shenley for some well-earned tea and cake. You will feel as though you have left London behind as we wind our way through quiet country lanes to the Orchard cafe in Shenley Park – scones and apple juice recommended! There are some gentle hills en route but we will take it steady with no one left behind. There is a bridleway, weather permitting, which is suitable for all bikes except road bikes with skinny tyres.

The route is mostly quiet country roads with one bridleway, and a step-free bridge crossing the A1. Be mindful of potholes on some roads.

Refreshments at the Orchard Cafe, Shenley Park.

Do check your brakes and gears work and the tyres have sufficient pressure. Bring water, cash for the cafe', a bike lock and 2x spare inner tubes in case of punctures. Also a light jacket/layers now it's cooler.
