Historic Churches- St Peter's Church Upper Slaughter.

Our first river is the Dikler which we cross just after descending the Brewery hill. Then we will head towards the Swell. We turn right towards Upper Slaughter near Copse Hill. We follow the road skirting the bottom of Copse Hill and then descend to Upper Slaughter. We turn right to see the ford (photo), there is a bridge so we can cross the Eye. We climb up to St Peter's Church which is reached from the square where the houses were designed by Lutyens in 1906. After the church we climb the hill to the Stow to Cheltenham road. At the cross roads we turn onto Buckle Street. We can do an extra mile here and have coffee at Adam's Cotswold Farm Park.
After Buckle Street it is a short ride back to Condicote through the Eyford Valley.

Historic churches. Over the course of the year some rides will stop at some interesting churches in the locality. We will spend about 5 minutes depending on the interest of the group. There is usually a collection box inside if you would like to contribute.

This is a circular route with stunning scenery.

Roads- mostly quiet country lanes however a longer stretch on Buckle Street and some very short sections on a couple of main roads.

Helmets are compulsory. Please charge your lights and bring a spare inner tube.
