This is an Intermediate ride with a few challenging hills on B and C rated roads.
Starting at Costa in Verwood we will ride out of Verwood passing the Heavy Horse Centre on our way to Cripplestyle, crossing the Cranborne to Fordingbridge road we will ride to the hamlet of Daggons then on to Damerham through single track picturesque country lanes. From Damerham we will ascend a couple of hills with sweeping views of Cranbourne Chase as we ride through to Cranborne stopping for a well earned cuppa and maybe a piece of cake... definitely a piece of cake at Cranborne Tea Rooms! From Cranborne we will take the back roads to Wimborne St Giles riding through the picturesque village heading for Gussage All Saints. Turning left before Gussage, with views of Knowlton Church and Horton Tower in the distance we will ride through to Knowlton and then onto Woodlands again on light traffic back roads. From Woodland we have our last hill and then freewheel into Verwood ending at Costa hopefully with a big smile on your face... 20 cake powered miles has never been so easy!
No special clothing required although something bright is best, helmets are strongly advised and remember to bring a water bottle with you and waterproofs if the weather is inclement.
PLEASE ENSURE YOUR BICYCLE IS ROADWORTHY..
