I enjoy a run out to the Cotswolds airport. Nice place for a mid ride stop anyway as there are toilets and a cafe/bar there.
There and back for me is about 80 miles round trip. Took Mrs grr last time I went.

Head down to Cirencester via North Cerney, then to Stroud via Minchinhampton, then back to Cheltenham via Painswick. If you get lost, then all the better.
Stop at the Jolly Nice or The Glider on the A419 for a tea break. ____________________ Triumph Sprint ST 1050. And it's Red. |

There are so many places .., and if you're feeling adventurous, after stopping for a cuppa at Cotswold Airport, take the A429, and follow it all the way up to Kenilworth !! Cracking road to ride, although it can get a bit heavy around Moreton-In-Marsh, especially on a market day. You can then work your way back, via Worcestershire, come round via Oxfordshire. There are so many cracking riding routes around the Cotswolds, you'll always be finding new routes ! ____________________ Beware what photos you upload, or link to on here, especially if you have family members on them |

fairly nice ride from gloucester to bourton on the water. and/or a veer off to the left toward stow on the wold via swell...
bourton usually has a few bikes hanging around. nice for a posh cream tea. and has the Cotswold Motor Museum as well and if so inclined, a model railway thing. ____________________ CBT - 17/09/12 * Theory - 23/10/12 * Mod1 - 05/03/13 * Mod2 - 25/03/13 * BOSH!

I used to like the so-called Charlbury TT, on the eastern edge of the Cotswolds. Tight and twisty, with some rollercoaster-like bends that can easily catch out the unwary. Bit further from the OP than I was to it though. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Hi Steve
Thanks, yeah, I enjoyed the ride out, bike was filthy by the time I got home, so gave it a quick wash, and thought I'd best put some acf-50 on. It was also nice to go on a ride, for the sake of going on a ride, not just to get to work, or do the shopping !! ____________________ Beware what photos you upload, or link to on here, especially if you have family members on them |
