An easy paced leisurely circular ride covering 20 miles over approx 3 hours including a refreshment stop. A break at the Lakeside Cafe and Bar in Walpole Park, Gosport. The route is mostly along cycleways with some quiet connecting side roads.

Ride leader notes
I ride a Thorn touring cycle and prefer to lead or participate in rides at a more leisurely pace of 10-11 miles per hour.
I prefer the shorter day or half day rides or local short tours. I do enjoy going off road and do not mind hills as long as there aren't too many of them.
