Map
A 60 mile ride from Rowlands Castle, stopping at West Meon Cuppacheeno for coffee, (14 miles) and onto Brown Candover, Chilton Manor Farm - usually called The Yard for lunch (27 miles). Then onto Preston Candover and coming back via West Tisted and High Cross, with the Stoner Hill descent into Petersfield, and for those who live south of Petersfield, we will have the final hill at the Butser cutting. Maybe stop at Petersfield for ice-cream/coffee.
There are some hills, but the pace will be approx 11-12 mph.

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.
