Experienced riders only, mainly quiet roads, care needed on descents.

Enjoy warm up before the first climb out of Mickleton.

Major climbs/descents inc Dovers hill, Saintbury, Willersey, Snowshill (50+mph)and a short section of the Fish.
Check brakes are tip top for the descents.

Estimated ride time between 4-7hrs, forget the distance, these climbs take thier toll.

Should you find the going too tough there is an alternative route along the base of the Cotswolds linking the climbs.

If you enjoy climbing this is a great ride.
