Short n sweet
A short scenic ride, easy and short with no technical sections, can be linked into the Naunton ride to make a longer ride. This is very much a cross country style ride mostly double track and open fields with some quiet roads. In the current cycling world this ride could quite easily be completed on a gravel bike. This makes it suitable as an introductory ride for those just starting out or even a family ride being reasonably short and not to technical or steep.
