GETTING THERE:

RAILWAY STATIONS:

Rugby            8.7-miles east of Binley Woods on A428 – mostly rural roads

Coventry        5.0-miles west north-west of Binley Woods on A428 – mostly urban roads

 

CAR PARKING:

The “Church in Binley Woods” will be using the village hall during the day, so we have been asked to leave the car park available for their use.

Please park on local roads, or it would be better to park in the school lay-by on the eastern edge of the village, as shown on the attached plan.  It’s about half a mile to ride down to village hall from there.

 

THE ROUTE:

The route uses OS 1:50,000 maps 140: Leicester & Coventry and 151: Stratford-upon-Avon, although all groups will be led, and route maps will not be necessary.  A small-scale route is attached and GPX files of the route will be sent with registration confirmation.

12 hours are allowed for the event, which comprises a circular route into the north of the Cotswolds including the highest tarmac road in Warwickshire (Lark Stoke over the Ilmington Downs).

The route will take you along some of our favourite lanes and uses a variety of refreshment stops as you might expect on a Cycling UK event.

We intend to have fun, so please enjoy the day with us.
