Wednesday rides to Culworth

In order to avoid road works, road closures, railway works, floods, mud on the road, etc we will head north to the charming delights of Culworth where hospitality awaits at the Red Lion.

The current weather forecasts (at Monday evening) indicate that it should be dry with light winds from a variety of directions.

2 rides on offer:

1. 35.7 miles with 1447 feet of ascent, stopping at 19 miles.

1. 40.84 miles with 1993 feet of ascent, stopping at 24.5 miles

As always bring sufficient water, payment means and tyre repair kit.

Given the usual numbers on a Wednesday, there is likely to be the need for a second ride leader.

Meet at the Swan Pool at 9.15 am for 9.30 am departure.

Look forward to seeing you there.

@JohnH the Eydon to Culworth Rd is still closed

Hi @JohnH, there is a road closure between Blakesley and Maidford (a really small red dot on One Network), but the closure signs were up today, although not sure if you can squeeze/walk through, as my route took me right onto the Banbury Lane (its the marked diversion) which can take you via Litchborough round to the Maidford crossroad without adding much.

Thanks Paul and Mark for picking up these closures. I will amend the longer ride later today.

Revised route for long ride. You now get an extra 2 miles, total being 42.3 miles with stop at 23.5. 1952 feet of ascent.

Good news for all riders in that today's weather forecast has changed and now saying gentle N winds to blow us back to Buckingham.
