A re-run of the popular route to Sleeford/Headley.
51 miles, 3 hills - Hollycombe, Hill Brow and Buriton cutting.
11-12 mph

Leaving Rowlands at 09.15 we head up to Buriton, Sheet, Liss, Blackmoor, then to Deadwater and the Bordon Inclosure - this is off road, but perfectly suitable for road bikes. Stopping at the Country Craft Market cafe at Sleeford for coffee, then through some pretty country lanes via Headley, Bramshot to Milland for lunch.
Heading down to Petersfield for an ice cream at Dylan's ice cream parlour and returning via the Buriton cutting.
Ride terminates at Clanfield, so be prepared to ride home from there.

About Wednesday rides

Wednesday rides usually start 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.

Wednesday rides usually provide a range of options to riders as we'll try to arrange multiple rides with different paces, distance and degree of hilliness.

On Wednesdays it is likely that there will be several riders coming back to the Havant area after an elevenses stop - although they might not include a PCTC ride leader. If that is what you'd like to do, please consult the ride organiser before the day of the ride to ensure someone knows and is able to bring you back.

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