A warm welcome from Grumpy Commuter and Myself! Do you want to try road riding? A bit frightened by the Aftermath threads sounding more like an episode of Casualty? This is for you.
A nice easy amble through the quiet (mostly!) roads of Staffordshire and Shropshire. The pace will be dictated by my fitness so will therefore be astonishingly easy. It's as flat as a fart around here. We're talking 400 metres? Distance will be around 30 miles. You will see such delights as:
1). The historic village of Brewood. Well worth a return visit with your significant other!
2). A church with the tower in the middle. Quite unusual I'm told.
3). A fighter jet from times past.
4). The very building where King Charles hid from that frightful oik Olly Cromwell.
Some of the roads are a little worse for wear to say the least so bear that in mind when selecting a steed. Strava warriors need not apply. Well, you can but you will be bored. Do come along though as one of those 40% zone ride thingies.
So, I reckon on 2 ish hours. A weekend or get it done on an evening? If the weather looks really crap, and Grumpy Commuter and I know all about crappy weather, we'll reconsider closer to the time!
