[svccridesupdate] Sunday 2nd August Ride to Hill
Good Morning Everyone
It’s another ride to Hill Tea and Cakes – so don’t forget your cash! About 57 miles / 92km in total with 2,500 ft / 750m of climbing. Due to a lot of roadworks around Coaley / Peter’s Street, I’ve decided to throw in a bit of a challenge and go up Frocester Hill and down Crawley Hill through Uley. You can probably get through the roadworks on a bike, if you want to avoid Frocester Hill.
Meet at 9:30am at Wallbridge Lock Ebley, Ryeford, Stanley Downton, Frocester Hill, Uley, Dursley and Leaf and Ground at Stinchcombe for a coffee stop after about 12 miles. Then Wick, Damery, Tortworth, Cromhall, Tytherington, Itchington, Thornbury, Oldbury-on-Severn, Hill after about 35 miles. I’m hoping to get there a little bit before 2pm, ready for the afternoon opening. Return through Rockhampton, Berkeley, Slimbridge, Cambridge where I will leave you and you can choose your preferred route home. The Ride with GPS route goes back via Claypits and Eastington to avoid the roadworks. Ride to Hill via Frocester Hill <ridewithgps.com/routes/56435819> I will put Live Location on for anyone joining en route or taking a slightly different route.
Hope to see some of you tomorrow – hot and sunny and no rain forecast.
