A ride to Stanton St John, Sun 20 Aug: NOTE 8am departure!

Taking inspiration from the B ride last week, this week the A ride heads to Rectory Farm Cafe at Stanton St John. And recognising the achievements of the Lionesses today with their 3-1 victory over Australia, there are three larger hills on the way out (Ashendon, Chilton, Stanton St John) and just one on the way home (Woodeaton/Noke).

The weather is currently forecast to be warm (18-21C), cloudy but no real chance of rain, and a 10mph SW wind to help us on our way home.

Distance: 56 miles / 90km, with the cafe at 29 miles / 47km
Ascent: 2200 ft / 660m (approx)
Speed: 17+ mph

Hope you can join us - please sign up if you are coming along!

I’ll probably ride out to quainton with you all then peel off to see the England game james.

No problem

For all potentially interested in the ride, let me know if you are keen to ride but also be back for the football (11am). Options might include an earlier start (8am) and a shorter route back home. Or if you want to ride as normal!

Not fussed about watching the footie, although quite happy yo start early to get back for some of it.

Happy to whatever.

I'm happy either way.

All - probably going for an 8am start - will confirm shortly

Confirmed 8am departure to allow early return for the footie. Meet at the Swan Pool at 7:55 to be rolling at 8:00.
