Map

Route to Elevenses at Trotton via Rowlands Castle, Finchdean, Idsworth, Littlegreen, South Harting, Nyewood and Dumpford.

Route from Trotton to Midhurst via Chithurst, Woolbeding, Easebourne, Bexleyhill, Lodsworth, Halfway Bridge, Selham, South Ambersham and West Lavington.

Route from Midhurst back to Havant via Cocking, Singleton, West Dean, Lavant, West Stoke, Funtington and Westbourne. To avoid the A286 between Midhurst and Cocking, there is a choice of route. One to the west of the main road via Bepton or one to the east via Heyshott, which includes a short stretch of rideable off-road.

The only testing hill in the whole journey is immediately after Cocking but this is the easiest way to get over the South Downs.

About Saturday rides

Rides usually from Havant with stops for elevenses, lunch and sometimes tea. If you're unable to keep up or have a mechanical problem, someone will be available to help you - although we obviously cannot guarantee to solve all problems.

Riders are free to join and leave the ride at various points. Some ride directly to the elevenses stop.

Saturday rides are (usually) much smaller than Wednesday rides. As a result they offer fewer options for rides but more flexibility for routes and destinations.

If you want to ride with us but only to elevenses and need someone to help you with the route back, please let us know in advance of the ride so we can try to arrange something for you.

This article describes what you should consider bringing with you on one of these rides.
