34 mile loop from Prestwich to Uppermill with just over 2,000ft of climbs. The GPS route is here: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/9208637 Nice testing climb at Buckstones Road before we descend down into Uppermill. It's marked as a category 3 on Strava, so that should give an indication of what to expect. Uppermill area is lovely but there are some really nice roads on the way back too, the Daisy Nook and Woodhouses areas in particular. Stops on the ride are either: 1) 1.Java Espresso Bar in Uppermill (good coffee and pastries, cycle friendly but could be busy by time we get there). This is at 16 miles in. 2.)Dog & Partridge pub down in Woodhouses (I've not tried this but looked nice and seems to have a decent range of drinks on it's menu witha big outside space). This is at 25 miles in.
