A Ride from Orton in north Cumbria

Starting from Orton at 09:15 for 09:30. 40 miles Average . Andy and Christine's ride.  

The July ride visits the lovely Eden valley, with one ford, two castles, a few short stretches of gravel and “couple” of hills. The ride is a total of 39 lumpy miles, but the biggest hill is within the first 1½ miles so just make sure your battery is charged and you’ll be fine. The start is in the centre of Orton just north of J38 of the M6 (9:15 for a 9:30 start) with coffee at Bojangles in Appleby after 12 miles and lunch at Lowther Castle after 25 miles (although we will be taking a picnic).

There are toilets at the start.

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.
