The initial plan was to go to Chesterton Windmill, but with its sails taken off, it looses a lot of its interest. So instead I propose to go to the outskirt of the Cotswolds to the lovely Chipping Camden.

113km 70miles. Likely speed 13.5 mph
Will have a short coffee break in Chipping Camden (not sure where, but with quite a few cafes there I am sure we'll get sorted. Best to bring a cafe lock if you can) but to deserve that you'll have to (slowly) conquer the infamous Dover's hill first
Meeting at the BH a bit before the dot for a 9:00 departure. BEWARE THIS WEEK-END WE CHANGE HOURS. SO 9:00 SUNDAY IS LIKE AN 8:00 IF WE HAD NOT, SO WAKE UP EARLY.
10 riders max. So grab your seat before all the hot cakes are gone.

Please note that due to medical reasons I use a handle-bar extender, a bit like TT-bars. I use this to relief the pain of NHS diagnosed trapped nerves in my wrists and elbow. I do NOT use these to ride like a TT racer, to draft behind others or similar performance seeking stunts.
Every bike ride, be it commute, ride alone or in group, entails its share of risks (bad road surface, motorised traffic, natural elements, our or other riders' mistakes or inattentions...). This is common knowledge and we all ride at our own risk. Nevertheless if my use of this extender this makes you feel uncomfortable, please do not join my rides.
