Map

A few hills (around 270metres of climbs) on the 15 mile route to West Dean (via East Marden & Chilgrove), then either a flat route along Centurion Way, or alternative hilly route via East Dean with additional 80 meter climb and 4 mile longer route, to Chichester (to be decided on the day).
Total distance around 32/36 miles, so should be back in Havant around 3pm, unless stopping for lunch in Chichester.

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.
