Please add your potential club run routes here please in Ridewithgps format.

To get us going, here is a 75kms (47mile) route with a potential cafe stop at the 25mile mark, ideal for a shortish winter ride and to allow those who don't want to stop to ride in company for most of the way and just 11-12 miles back to Brum

This route also passes by Nom in Flyford Falvell & Toast, also at Flyford Flavell - Nom is quite small so probably only suitable for small groups, Toast gets very busy so advanced booking is advised.

Here are some routes from club rides I have either lead or taken part in. They are all about 50 miles with café stops about halfway. All cafes sell breakfast sandwiches.

Some routes return via Wast Hills and West Heath to Black Horse. IMHO this is less attractive at lunch time as cars are fast in both directions, best cut off past The Peacock up Icknield, over Primrose Hill and then home from there.

Anyone wanting help with RWGPS or any aspect of planning a club ride please message me on 07779912359 and I’ll do my best to help.
More routes to follow. Also follow me on RWGPS and you can pick up any of my routes from there, and on Strava.

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/35287366 (110km)
both passing by the Lighthorne pavillion café


70mile / 113km to Chipping Camden (including the famous Dover's hill climb):
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/36999226
Suggested café stop at Katie's (but there are several other in chippig Camden)

200km / 125miles loop to the Cotswolds via Whichford and Evesham on the way back
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/39526275
Suggested café are the straw kitchen in Whichford and Herbies Coffee House or Hampton ferries in Evesham (if you want to have two stops) or Katie's in Chipping Camden if you only want one stop
