[svccridesupdate] Tomorrow’s drive to start ride – 1pm start time

I am going ahead with the drive to start ride tomorrow. Please note the earlier than normal start time of 1pm (so that we get to the café in Aldbourne before closing – the café is 2/3s of the way around the route).

The route is a circumnavigation of White Horse Hill, crossing the Ridgeway, going through Lambourn and with the tea/coffee stop in Aldbourne. I have adapted last year’s route to make it a little shorter (see details below), in view of the likely temperatures. There is also an option to shorten further, stopping at a café in Lambourn and then taking a more direct route back to Shrivenham, should this be preferred.

Location of start of ride: Car park in Martens Road, Shrivenham (free parking). what3words location of car park is inferior.galloped.youthful

Directions for start point: Heading south on A419 from Cirencester, take Shrivenham exit (on A420, turning left off A419). After about 3 miles turn right off A420 to Shrivenham. Keep going straight on into Shrivenham until you get to the left turn to Highworth – turn left here and then first left into Martens Road, where the car park is immediately on your left.

Start time: 1pm. Please arrive in good time to be ready to start riding at 1pm.

Ride details:

* 32miles / 51.5km, medium paced, with a coffee stop at Time at the Forge, Aldbourne.

* A modest 1,528 feet / 466 meters of climbing.

* Route: Shrivenham – Uffington – Childrey – Lambourn – Aldbourne – Foxhill – Shrivenham

Look forward to seeing some of you tomorrow in Shrivenham for the 1pm start.
