Hay to Hereford Circular - 50 miles

Starting at the bus stop just outside Oxford road car park, small lanes are used to ride this lovely scenic route to Hereford. There will be a lunch stop at De Koffee pot just on the banks of the river Wye near the beautiful Hereford Cathedral. De Koffee Pot does great coffee, cake and light lunches. As we will be sitting outside in the enclosed garden with a large covered awning our bikes will be safely in view.

This is not a very hilly route at only 2,100ft of climbing, a few long drags and gentle climbs. Speed will be 10-11mph. I will always stop to regroup - no one will be left behind. If you have a navigation device please feel free to download the .gpx file I have uploaded.

Given the distance of this ride, riders must have a well serviced bike, have checked their tyre condition and pressures, be wearing a helmet and have done sufficient training. I suggest this should be at least one ride a week of > 20 miles for a month before. Snacks and water are also essential.
