See post for new route. Route updated to Salcey Forest due to late opening of Waterside Cafe. Distance increased to 56 miles**
Weather forecast for Sunday is looking like it should be dry but fairly cold with the wind from ENE. Plan is to head out in a a general NE direction to Stoke Bruene stopping at the Water Side Cafe. Terrain is generally rolling as we head out to Stoke Bruene but the return leg will be easier with hopefully a tail wind to push us along.

Distance: 48 miles
Pace: 16+ mph (Dependent on the group, but likely pace ~ 17 mph)
Duration: ride time 3 hrs plus stop
Gradients: 1850 ft of ascent
Route: Heading North to Silverstone, Blakesley, Maidford, Pattishall, Blisworth and then to the Cafe stop at Stoke Bruerne. Return leg we head Paulerspury, Deanshanger, Beachhampton, Thornborough, Padbury and in to Buckingham.
