| RIDE CANCELLED - New Forest Autumn Colours | 3* |
|---|
Leader:Jo Little |
Start Time:9:00 am |
Start Location:Lyndhurst |
Description:Too much rain - the roads would be too dangerous. Ride cancelled.Please pre-book for this ride by contacting the ride leader. 80-100km (50-65 miles) all-day touring ride, lunch and possibly tea stop en route, at a riding pace of 18-22km/h (11-14mph). Ride cancelled due to weather warning for area THIS RIDE IS NOW FULL I haven't cycled in the New Forest in November before but am hoping the autumn will provide us with some beautiful scenery, both on the heathland and in the forest. For those who have been on the New Forest weekend we will be travelling on some familiar roads but I am also trying out a new area. We will meet at Boltons Bench Car Park, Beaulieu Road, Lyndhurst, SO43 7DA. The car parking is free and has proven safe so far. We will cycle through Beaulieu before heading to Sway for a cafe/breakfast stop at The Forest Deli. This is quite early at 17 miles but should be welcome after the early start. We then try the new section through some villages before approaching Burley from the west. Here we will have a lunch break at The Old Farmhouse (38 miles). The ride then heads back onto familiar roads with our main climb up Bolderwood Drive (not too steep but quite long) before heading back into Lyndhurst. The ride is 50 miles which hopefully means we will be back to Wantage by 5ish. I am limiting the ride to 12 people and we will split into two groups if it proves necessary. |
