Viking Ship Loop

This route is to mark the 75th anniversary of the arrival of the Viking Ship at Pegwell Bay. We will cycle to Minster and then through the villages of Monkton, Stourmouth, Plucks Gutter, Elmstone, Ash, Woodnesborough and Sandwich before returning to our start point. It’s a lovely route and fairly flat. We will cycle mostly on country lanes and quieter roads, although there are a couple of points where we will be on busier roads.

It’s a great route if you are just getting into cycling or haven’t been out for a while.

As with all Breeze Rides no-one will be left behind. This is a non-stop route and refreshments will be at the end of the ride at the cafe at the Viking Ship. We will make brief stops at Plucks Gutter, at Derek's Bench in Elmstone (for that essential photo) and on the quay at Sandwich. A toilet stop is available at the start/finish and in Sandwich and Ash if needed.

Helmets are compulsory on this ride.

Remember to bring a spare inner tube and tools to remove your wheel/tyre, as well as a drink and any snacks you might need to keep you going on the ride.
