Midweek C ride - 28thOctober

Hi C riders - this Wednesday we will be following an anticlockwise loop to the George & Dragon at Quainton (22 miles) via Twyford, Calvert and the Claydons where we hope to meet the B's (separate table to comply with social distancing guidance) before returning home through North Marston and Winslow (total distance 39 miles). See the attached route for details.
I have struggled to find details of road closures due to HS2 and E-W rail works (saw a few on Sunday, but all were passable but was Sunday!), so route may change in real time on the day!!! (No, not me getting my garmin excuses in early!)
If you fancy it then please tap the Attending Button and looking forward to seeing you at the pool.
If more than 6 book in then I’ll be looking for a volunteer backup RL please?
Please note that initially we will book one table at the G&D, so really important to hit the 'I'm Attending ' button please so I know if we need more than one seating area.

At the Swan Pool & cafe stop we will be complying with the Covid 19 rules by maintaining a 2mtr distancing and will not be exceeding the maximum number of 6 riders in a group to comply with British Cycling guidelines. Make sure you have a Face-covering in your pocket and that should be worn to respect the cafe personnel.
Hope to see you on Wednesday

The only road closure was / is the Poundon road from the Stratton cross roads, if so you’ll have go via Stratton / Marsh / Charndon to get through to Calvert and onwards. 😃

The road padbury to lenborough near the bridge was flooded yesterday if you were going that way

Thanks Paul & Katie for the updates

I have adjusted the route slightly to avoid closed road to Poundon - now 2 miles shorter!

ATTENTION - C RIDERS - REVISED ROUTE

Hi everyone - having studied the road closures in more detail (thanks to Mark for great link: https://one.network/), I have decided to start again with a new route for tomorrow still stopping at the G&D in Quainton around 11:00am.
New route is a 38 mile loop, shorter to G&D and a bit longer on the way home going slightly further north before we drop down into Buckingham from Chackmore.
