- We will cycle on delightful country lanes via Bottrells Ln, Magpie Ln, Winchmore Hill, Penn Street, Holmer Green, Little Kingshill to Great Missenden (12 miles 750ft climbing https://ridewithgps.com/routes/33560669) . Back via Frith Hill, Hyde Heath, Chesham Bois and Little Chalfont (another 11 miles 340ft ascent. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/33560697 )
- We will stop briefly at GM to use the loo, and can get takeaway food and drink at Matilda’s.
- Please bring the usual (pump, inner tube, credit card etc). I would prefer you to wear a helmet for your safety. Toilets are open at CSG and GM.
- If you cycle in the Chilterns, you will know that there is no such thing as a flat ride - sorry! But we will regroup at the top of every hill.
- If you are driving, there is free parking on the roads around the village green e.g. Bowstridge Lane HP8 4QJ.
- If coming by tube you can take Chiltern Rail or Metropolitan Line to Little Chalfont and cycle 2 miles to the start (best via Burtons Ln and Roughwood Ln).
- Please check your bike thoroughly before you come. Check your brakes are working well, your gears are smooth and your tyres are in good condition and pumped up – you can use this video. https://www.sustrans.org.uk/our-blog/get-active/2019/everyday-walking-and-cycling/the-m-check-for-your-bike-in-11-steps If that one is too technical then try this easier one https://youtu.be/u0dtGe-LrcQ
