Lovely sunny day looming, with a light wind from the NE. A perfect opportunity to head North for a change and take in the rolling Northants countryside.
This week we will head for Stoke Bruerne Canal Museum cafe, via a circuitous route heading North then East through Fosters Booth, to the stop. Returning direct via Whittlebury.
Distance: 40 miles (64Km) Duration:2hrs 51mins @ 14mph, plus coffee stop. Terrain: Lumpy 2355ft (718 mtr) Weather Forecast: Full Sun 16-20 deg, so wear sunscreen. Less that 5% chance of rain. Wind light 6mph from the NE.
It doesn't get much better this this, so grab your bike and meet me at the Swan Pool at 08:45 to sign the ride sheet, setting off at 09:00.
