    This may be another One Network red herring, a friends Strava route yesterday included going from Shutlanger to Blisworth and he didn't post up anything about the road being closed.
    Hopefully they just haven't started the work yet.

    Hi Francine,
    I believe that'll be fine, as long as he's not a pro sprinter and eats all the sausage rolls before we get there 😉

    Wednesday's Social ride is a repeat of the rain and illness restricted trip out to Hogshaw Farm Café ( https://hogshawfarm.co.uk/farm-shop-cafe­/ ).
    I've adapted the previous longer route to avoid the broken road of Poundon Hill, which has shortened it, although on the up side, we'll reach the café sooner for coffee and cake.

    I've also created a shorter version for those looking for a more leisurely trip.

    Shorter 28 miles:

    Longer 34 miles:
    https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course­/261487828

    The weather forecast is for sunny intervals, a breezy North Westerly to help speed us to our café stop and a temperature range that might just break into double digits.

    As usual, please ensure you have payment for coffee and cake, a drink on your bike, all the relevant repair kit and a water resistant jacket in case of a cheeky April shower :-))

    Please sign up above if you fancy a new café and hopefully see you all on Wednesday.

    Hi John,
    On the 40 miler you may want to check the 15 mile left turn, as I think that's a farm track. The usual Le Renard, Strava segment carries on through Foxely then a left turn at the Caswell Lane crossroads up to Litchborough.
    I might be wrong, but i hope this helps.

    Definitely interested Stuart and probably the 65 again, are you doing the 100 again?

    I will hopefully latch on, as you come through Silverstone.

    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.
