Breeze Chilterns Cycleway Challenge loop 3 Hughenden, Fingest & Stokenchurch

This loop has some of the most scenic views in the Chilterns. There will be plenty of chances for photo opps especially as this loop has some of the most challenging hills, but the challenge is only to get to the top, walking or pushing is perfectly acceptable! The last six miles are all downhill!

Breeze riders, have you ever wanted to explore further afield, discover more of the lanes and villages of the Chilterns, challenge yourself on routes which you may have been reluctant to try by yourself? This year our local Breeze Champions are running the Chilterns Cycleway Challenge. This will be a series of 7 rides spread out over the spring and summer months. The Chilterns Cycleway is a circular route through the Chilterns from Henley and Ewelme in the west to Harlington and Apsley in the East. The route has been adapted to comprise 7 loops of approx. 32 miles. This allows us to start and finish from the same parking place. The CCC is aimed at leisure riders, it is a social, not an endurance event. Where there are challenging hills it will be perfectly acceptable to walk and push your bike if necessary. The event is pure Breeze; social, fun, and supportive. Riders can sign up for as many or few of the loops as they wish, there is no obligation to complete all of them. Each ride will have at least 2 Champions so there will be plenty of support.

Much of this route is on country lanes but this area tends to be busier with traffic

We will have a coffee stop in Stokenchurch

Please wear a helmet, bring a spare inner tube and pump. Check your bike over in advance to make sure the brakes are working and tyres are pumped up!

We never leave anyone behind
