Map
We meet at 8-45am for a 9am start from outside Napier Hall in Portsmouth Rd., Horndean. Its a short (Approx. 30km.) hilly & attractive route via Blendworth, Charlton, Old Idsworth, Little Green, Compton, Walderton Stansted & Rowlands Castle. The steepest section is a short 12% incline on Woodlands Lane. There's also a steep descent just after Charlton that needs care.

About Waterlooville CCC rides
We have established a Community Cycling club for Waterlooville - a series of cycle rides in the Waterlooville area for people who are new to group riding or who haven't cycled for a while. All are circular routes in moderate terrain that avoid steep inclines but may include a steeper descent. As far as possible we will avoid busy roads. Routes are all less than 50km long (most substantially less). Our aim is to make cycling enjoyable, safe and welcoming for all.
