Coypool Park and Ride

The Friday series are quite challenging rides with some steep hills. We start at Coypool and then take various routes to explore Dartmoor. For example - Up the Plymouth Trail and turn off at Grenofen and take the steep hill onto the moor towards Cadover, turning to Sheepstor and then around Burrator reservoir before going to Walkhampton, Horrabridge, Longash Garden centre cafe (for a bite to eat) then freewheeling downhill back to Coypool. Alternatively we may turn right at Clearbrook and take the two steep hills to Burrator and on to Walkhampton etc. Another alternative could be to Tavistock, Peter Tavy, Walkhampton, Yelverton, home. As a change we will set off through Plympton and do a circular route through Cornwood, Sparkwell etc. In poor weather we will take short cuts and make cafes the priority. We may also take the ferry to Torpoint and explore Cornwall. Please bring spare inner tubes etc.
