A bit of a hybrid route, so well suited to hybrid bikes! We'll start from Elvaston Castle car park and head off on road through Thulston, Aston and Weston, before picking up the Cloud Trail and heading south to Breedon on the Hill for a café stop at Beths Kitchen, then we'll turn round and retrace our steps back. For those who like a challenge, there could be an optional extra to try and ride up to Breedon church....

Although the Cloud Trail is surfaced, this isn't really a ride for a road bike, but any other kind of bike should be fine. The route is relatively flat, but usual FLAB rules apply - no one gets dropped, we regroup on hills and the pace is governed by the riders at the back.

Bring a working bike, a working helmet, a working sense of humour, a spare inner tube just in case and some money for the cafe and car park.
