Map
Slightly shorter [40.1k] flat, but wiggly, route to allow for the time taken to cross on the Goppo Ferry, as we are bound to just miss one. Ferry tickets are return tickets [you can't get a single] to include bike [which is extra] £4 for Seniors and £5.10 for Adults. Expensive for one trip but there is no time limit on using the return. There is no booth on the Portsmouth side so you will have to get your ticket from the machine. There is also a change machine.
Coffee stop at Stokes Bay.
This is the last ride before the winter break, the intention that we start again on the 9th March to avoid clashing with the Cathedral Challenge series.
