| This is a fixed centre tour based at the Talbot Hotel, Leominster. The area is interesting both historically and geologically and also has a wider variety of wildlife than the more intensively farmed parts of England. The terrain is not easy, but it is envisaged that three groups will travel at different paces, so that everyone who wants to ride in company should be able to do so. Any discrepancies in hill-climbing speeds are ameliorated by frequent photo opportunities and snack stops. Your leader can suggest worthwhile detours for riders who would like to ride faster than the main groups and also opportunities for short cuts. The main groups will spend most of the day cycling and sightseeing ‘from the saddle’ and, for hard riders, there are additional 150 km and 200 km Audax rides on the Sunday. Non-cycling partners are welcome. |
