Cycle Steps
Start on Athlestan Way (home for me), travel out through Tutbury, through Fauld, out to Marchington, through there and out the back of Draycott-in-the-clay.

Then grab onto the B5017 and travel back into Burton on a couple of slightly more major roads. Couple of hills but nothing major.
Landmarks/Pubs for lunch/Sites to see?
Practically none, there's a pub (I think it was called the dog and partridge on your right as you go through Marchington, but that was more or less it)

I did this ride today and it took me just under 2 hours, which I was very pleased about. I really enjoyed it because it was a mix of hills and flats. Even if Draycott Cliff was a bit of a challenge. I might do this route next time in reverse so I can go down it! :o)
