This is SMTBE’s first family ride, with all riders welcome.
We’re starting at the Waitrose in Witchelstowe and use the old railway line round the bottom of Old Town. The route is 3.5 miles, with a playground stop 🙂
The ride is sutiable for trailers as well as younger riders and small bikes.
There is parking, toilets and food at Waitrose, where we will start and finish.

Although we go south of Swindon lots, but we’ve not yet done a trip to the north, so let’s change that!
Starting in the village of Miserden, just north of Cirencester, we will do a 20km lap of some fantastic scenery and riding. The views are driving the route, but there are some epic downhills as well. It’s graded as Red for technicality (due to the rocky descents and climbs) and Red for fitness, as there is over 500m of climbing involved.
We will start and finish at the Carpenter’s Arms in Miserden. It’s a great pub with excellent post ride sustenance and even a sweet shop inside.
Helmets are compulsory as always and knee pads are advised.
Full suspension bikes recommended – the uphills are just as rocky as the downs!
