The Carousel Tea Room on Tewkesbury High Street (north end). It has a couple of benches outside. Good for coffee and cake.

Re: Club Run Database - Time for an update?
All my cycling, running and walking routes (600+ since 2011) are in RWGPS, most bike routes start/finish in Bromsgrove.

I'll lead a C run to the Pump House in Worcester (another new cafe I think) but there's a catch. You'll need to find your way to Tardebigge and I'll lead it from there. Usual start time 9.15 from BH, approx 9.45 at Tardebigge. About 90km (56 miles) round trip.

Copy the FIT or GPX file off your device onto your computer and it's saved. Back up all your stuff, and it's saved again. Strava, RWGPS etc. are primarily for viewing, sharing and analysis.

Re: Club runs - 29th July
Forgot to say, passing the 100 mile mark (well almost) will be celebrated at the Coach and Horses, Weatheroak.
I expect the pace will be around 12.5-13.5 mph (7.5-8 hours plus stops). B runners welcome if you fancy a longer, slower one for a change.
