10am start from the Rowsley Car Park, Old Station Close, Rowsley, Matlock, DE4 2EL. NB There is a height barrier at this free car park, but bikes can be unloaded from the roof outside and then get under the barrier.
About 20 miles on minor roads with great views. Quite hilly but should be easily managed if you have electric assist. And the final five miles are an easy flat ride alongside the Peak railway.
Refreshment at Winster en route.

| Wessex | Romsey-Stockbridge circuit Starting from Green Acre, Halterworth Lane, Romsey SO51 9AD at 10:00. 34 miles, Average .This was the ride which had to be cancelled in 2025 due to excess heat!
David writes:
The route contains bits of which we've ridden with the TC before but hopefully still a different and varied route for most.
10am start from Green Acre, Halterworth Lane, Romsey SO51 9AD; coffee at the Wellow fishery after 16km and then via small lanes to Stockbridge for lunch (at about 37km, bring sandwiches) and then a loop back home for a total of 54km.
There are obvious ways to shorten or lengthen the route as required.
My planner says 500m of ascent and descent, most of that clustered around 4 locations on the route, two before the coffee stop and then one before and after lunch. The majority of the distance is reasonably easy going.
I expect Alison will provide some nibbles at home when we get back, for those who are able to hang around.
