+ Google Calendar+ iCal Export
Fun in the centre of Cirencester
Still a long way to go (96km in all)
A pause to consider the way ahead

An away-day ride starting near Coleshill, with coffee at the Cotswold Water Park, followed by lunch in Cirencester where we will negotiate the intricacies of the one-way system. After lunch we join The Welsh Way, an old iron age trade route between Wales and Oxford, and later a drovers route between Wales and London, before returning to the car park near Coleshill via Lechlade.

Ride report

Six-four in favour of women – (according to Head Office stats) OxfordCycling.uk is one of the few clubs to maintain a healthy gender balance. Maybe it’s the lovely routes our leaders choose? Today was no exception.
