Routes go out via Reddicap – get the lungs going.
Out to Curdworth and onto Hams Hall. Take care in and out of Curdworth if there is traffic. Then to Lea Marston.
All routes diverge at Whitacre Heath and come back together again at Dosthill.
Short route goes up the A51 through Kingsbury.
Medium route loops south around Shustoke and back up to Kingsbury and then via the oil terminal to head into Dosthill via Hockley.
Long route also loops via Shustoke then heads out to Monks Path Wood (to get in another climb) before heading to Dosthill via Hurley and Wood End.
From Dosthill all routes loop round via Fazeley and then back down the A4091 to the Belfry. The short route cuts across through Middleton to reduce the length on the main road for the social group. Medium and long return around the Belfry roundabout.
All routes use Fox Hollies and Wylde Green road back to Boldmere. For punishment the use of Pilkington or Kempson is an option ;-)

Bullets fitness -
Cycling is a physically active sport. You should always seek advice from your GP before taking up a strenuous physical pursuit such as this. You accept that you do so entirely at your own risk and that it is your responsibility to ensure that you are fit enough to be able to ride the routes posted on Strava.
Bullets ride with care -
Ride with due care and attention whenever you are on your bike. Respect other road users and be patient, this is not a race and there are no rewards for finishing first or fast times. Do not put yourself or others at risk by careless riding - Ultimately, you are responsible for your riding.
Bullets Lead by example when on the road -
Always obey the Highway Code and ride in a manner appropriate. Be courteous and consider other road users, pedestrians and others engaged in a leisure activity such as horse riders. The route may follow country lanes where you will encounter rural traffic users such as tractors, etc. Where necessary ride in single file and according to the road conditions. We also strongly recommend the following:
• RED means STOP. Do not take chances
• Helmets must be worn whilst riding
• Take heed of road traffic warning signs, they apply to cyclists too
• Extend all reasonable courtesy to other road users
• Ride single file on single roads climbs and A Roads to allow traffic to flow
• Anticipate oncoming traffic and ride accordingly
• Be aware of potholes and loose gravel on roads
• Keep a safe distance between you and any riders in front, especially on descents
• Be patient when crossing junctions
• When turning right, always make your intentions clear to road users
• Be prepared for adverse weather and wear/carry adequate clothing
• In hot, sunny conditions drink plenty of water and apply sun protection
• Do not drop litter – use the bins provided or take it home with you. Put it your pocket, under the hem of your shorts or jersey sleeve. Ultimately, don’t litter and give cycling a bad name.
• Do not behave in a manner that may offend others.
