Starting from - Meet at the gazebo next to the Elgar Centre in Upton (what3words wash.wink.corner). Do not park in the adjacent small car park as the barrier may get locked without warning. There is usually ample street parking or use the big car park just up the road (what3words excuse.bumpy.hips - I promise I'm not making these up!). NN5 4EH

This is a leisurely social ride, aiming for 11-12mph. We will aim to stay together as a group for the whole ride, and ride at the pace of the slowest rider.

Please make sure you are ready to leave on time, especially the leader!

CAFE UPDATE - SUBJECT TO CONFIRMATION.
I am hoping to stop for coffee in Weedon instead of Stowe. This will allow a short circuit of The Depot’ (originally known as The Royal Ordnance Depot) and will add about 1 mile to the route.
Alternatively, we will stop at The Barn Cafe at the Old Dairy Farm Craft Centre at Upper Stowe after about 18 miles for refreshments.
**
Please bring a helmet and remember to put it on (compulsory), spare tube and pump, and money for a drink.

Cheers, Richard.
