Start at Elsfield Turn. Anti-clockwise route around outskirts of Bicester with coffee at Stratton Audley Barn.

Ride report

It was a beautiful day as we set off in support of Iraj’s training regime for Tehran, on a frequently spectacular route. However, we unanimously decided to terminate the official ride at little early at Islip in favour of a cold one in the garden at the Red Lion. On our journey back to Oxford, Barbara introduced us to what must be the best bridleway of all time, only 3.7km but perfectly paved and totally traffic free for as far as the eye could see!

The map is an embedded link from Ride with GPS. You can zoom in to see the route in as much detail as you like. For example, you can zoom in (using the + sign) to see exactly where the start is.
