Cotswolds ride

Post by Kata »

I led a ride through the Cotswolds for a local group and it seemed to go well.

Thinking it might be a nice change for you South West Types.

You can't go that fast on some of the roads but the cake corners and sites to see make up for it. There is Fish hill though.

Perhaps come up though cheddar and chew magna and get to somewhere in Cotswolds have a night, then a tour around?

Any thoughts? Comments along the lines of "why the fk would I want to do that" "Too many hedges* of course are always welcome as is useful thoughts. :-)

Probably too late to book somat cheap now but could do it May or early June next year? (Outside Brian's weekwnd and Llandow of course!)

Cheers

Nice area, nothing special but something different and some very well kept towns & villages.
I was riding through a few weekends back as it happens (for this years ABR Feastival), dropped in Clarksons farm and he was out there filming.

Post a ride here and you may well get a few of us (or just me) ride up for a long day. When I was in south Gloucestershire and not going over to Wales we often terrorised the retired colonels in their Cotswolds villages...

I've done a few up thatawayz. Got a great lunch stop.

Bit far for those below the Mason-Dixon line though.

Normally start from Chipnumb.
Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?
