Location

Long Itchington, Warwickshire. In a farm field off Marton Road.

Participants

Nick Holden

Plans

Looks like a nice day for a bike ride. It's also the first day of Strava's "fi'zi:k Tour Tune-Up" so clocking some time in the saddle will be good. Aiming to be at the hashpoint about 4pm, wind and leg muscles permitting.

Expedition

Got lost in Rugby on the way there, and found lots of bonus hills that were not on the route. And then got lost on the way home leading to an impromptu wander around a golf course. Strange day.

On the other hand, got right to the hash point where someone was growing potatoes. And clocked 109km which makes this my longest ride ever. -- Nickholden (talk) @52.5803,-1.1022 22:22, 8 June 2013 (GMT+01:00)

This does not look like a cycle path. And it wasn't. Oops.
