I thought we might head back to a lovely stop which Dave first brought to my attention - Cotswold Distillery at Stourton. Yes, it is a distillery and a cafe - what more could you want?
The route is due west and basically an out and back because it's difficult to make a loop without making it quite a bit longer, and it's probably not the best day for that weather wise.
Two biggish lumps - one before the cafe and one after, but otherwise it's pretty fast and flat. The good news is that once we have done the 450ft climb immediatley after the cafe then it pretty much 12 miles downhill. Pace will be 18/19mph.
I'm happy to start earlier to avoid the heat if others agree? Could do 7:45 for 8am start perhaps?
