Good Morning Everyone
Tomorrow’s ride is about 55 miles / 90 km with 2600ft / 790m of climbing to Oaksey and Malmesbury.
Meet at Wallbridge Lock at 9:30am. We will then head up Butterow Hill – the only major climb of the day – to Minchinhampton Common, through Hampton Fields and, after a short sharp climb, to Cherington. We will then continue through Culkerton and Crudwell to Oaksey with a stop at the Dragonfly Cafe after about 17 miles. We will continue through Minety, Little and Great Somerford, Corston and Malmesbury with a stop at Jackdaws Cafe after 36 miles from the start. On the way back, we will go through Shipton Moyne, Westonbirt and Kingscote, where I will leave you. You can then choose your own route home – the ridewithgps route goes back through Nailsworth and A46. Oaksey and Malmesbury Sept 2025 <ridewithgps.com/routes/52454547>
Feel free to join (or leave) en route or just come to the first stop. Hope to see some of you tomorrow. The weather forecast is mainly dry and sunny, with a possibility of some light rain, a bit breezy and about 20 C.
