The 100-mile route heads west out of Milton Keynes through a series of attractive villages as it passes south of Buckingham and north of Bicester. The ride then heads into the beautiful Cotswold countryside passing through some of the iconic and well know Cotswold villages and towns. The second half of the route passes through charming countryside and villages heading past Banbury and through Silverstone, the legendary home of the British Grand Prix, before returning to Milton Keynes. Best described as an undulating route with an elevation of 5,299 feet with the more challenging climbs in the Cotswold but you are easily distracted by some wonderful views! Time on busy roads has been minimised with the majority of the ride on smaller, quieter roads.

The route will not be marshalled or signed so you will need to ride with your own on bike navigation (routes will be provided for this) or with someone who has it. There is however the option to join a guided group led by an experienced cyclist.

There will be two Ride High manned energy zones supplying refreshments on the route. A roaming First Aid team will be available in case of emergencies.
