Hestercombe
French Weir Park
09:30 – 14:00
May be dodging a few showers, but hopefully staying dry - come prepared! A gentlish ride, with a few short sharp rises, but there is a busy stretch, coming from Adsborough, turning left onto the A38, followed by a right turn shortly afterwards. You need to be confident on a busy road.
Your mission is to spot these fabulous bluebells along the way
