Charlecote, Hampton Lucy, Sherbourne, Norton Lindsey, Bearley, Aston Cantlow, Billesley, Binton, Welford, Long Marston - lunch at around the two thirds distance - Mickleton, Ilmington, Armscote, Newbold, Alderminster and Loxley.
67.8 km/42.14 mls with 496m/1627 ft of ascent
Four categorised climbs, all graded "easy": The climb through Norton Lindsey, the climb from Mickleton up Meon Hill towards Ilmington and the climbs through Alderminster and Loxley. None of these provides a major challenge and the route is rolling rather than hilly. Probably an ideal Hastings taster route for some of you Dene riders!
