Gosport D Day Tour

On this day in 1944 the D Day Invasion was underway, so a fitting date for tour of Gosport which takes in several sites relating to the event, as well as other hidden history of the town.

We’ll depart Havant Spring at H Hour +2.5, or 08:30hrs, with a fairly direct ride to Gosport.
When we get to Gosport I’ll take you on a 26Km circular tour with frequent stops where I’ll tell you about the areas history.

We’ll finish the tour in Gosport, where we can get lunch and you can then choose between using the ferry or riding back through Fareham to return home.

This is not a fast ride.

The tour of Gosport will be stop start as we visit the various places of interest.

In order to see everything, I think we will need to be at the Gosport start point by 10am. If you’re a slower rider and want to join the ride you could consider setting out earlier and meeting us in Gosport – let me know if you want to use this option.

About Pop-up rides

We have certain days when we try to organise regular rides. However, individual ride leaders can create pop-up rides for any day and time.

The small size of some pop-up rides means we might be unable to split a ride if you get into difficulties. We will do all we can to escort you back to the start point, but please be prepared to navigate yourself home or to call for support from a partner, relative or friend.
