Warwickshire countryside - start in Rugby

This will be the 12th Skyride starting from Rugby for 2013. It may be getting colder, but there is no excuse for not cycling at the weekend. Maybe it's time to try out those new fleece lined tights! Route will be: Rugby ---> Long Lawford ---> Wolston ---> Coventry Airport ---> Hunningham ---> Long Itchington ---> Birdingbury ---> Frankton ---> Stretton on Dunsmore ---> Wolston ---> Bretford ---> Kings Newman ---> Newbold upon Avon ---> Rugby As per some requests, there will be a pub stop at Streton On Dunsmore (30miles in) for tea/cake/soup etc, so please bring money. http://www.shoulderofmuttonstretton.co.uk/ Route will be all on road. I will be aiming for anywhere between an average of 10-13mph over the whole route. The main purpose for me is for fitness. I ride a Hybrid, not a road bike. We can go a bit slower if need be. Its not a race, but you should be able to maintain 12-13mph on the flats. Please ensure you bring spare inner tubes / pump. Helmets are recommended. Route will be as the following link: http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/320520641 If you are on a mountain bike, this ride is probably not for you. If you have not cycled more than 15 miles before, this ride is probably not for you. If you have big knobbly tyres, this ride is probably not for you. Note this is a challenging ride, you must have a good level of fitness. Challenging means challenging.

I suggest you arrive at around 09:45 at the latest.
