Much Wenlock and Wenlock Edge

We climb out of Much Wenlock and then have a long descent through Sheinton down to Cressage. There is a very brief spell on the main road before hitting the real back roads to Harnage Grange into Acton Burnell then onto Kenley, Hugley up onto Wenlock Edge, finishing with a long descent back into Much Wenlock.

A lovely remote route around some less frequented lanes that surround Much Wenlock. I have marked it up as challenging as there will be a short steep climb up to Kenley and then a long climb to get onto Wenlock Edge, however there is plenty of time and there is no problem if you need to get off and walk. The pace will be my usual steady pace.

We will be mostly on very minor roads. Please note there is a ford I wouldn't advise trying to ride, there is a bridge to bypass it, however you must be able to carry your bike up 6 steps to do this.

There are no tea shop stops on this ride but we will take the time to stop and look at Langley Chapel which dates back to the 1300's. Good place to have a snack.

A helmet is advisable and appropriate clothing, please also bring a spare inner tube, a drink and what ever snacks you fancy.

We never leave anyone behind
