Bunbury

Description

112km cycling event starting from Siddington, Cheshire. Controls at Bunbury and Siddington., plus 2 information controls.

You can use E-Brevet proof of passage on this event.

A flat ride around Cheshire following the first half of the Venetian Nights route, but without the hills!

Enjoy a light breakfast in Siddington before the first section, which is a flat and pleasant 43km across Cheshire. Pass the Lovell telescope at Jodrell Bank, through Goostrey and Middlewich , around Winsford, and through the Tilstone Fearnall lanes to the control at Bunbury, admire the 14th century Church before the choice of a quick Coop sarnie, fish and chips or a full english at Tilley's Cafe!

The following section is quite flat as you head back eastwards through Alpraham, Church Minshull and on to an info control at Elton. Continue through Winterley, Hassall and Smallwood before skirting around Congleton, finally through Gawsworth then skirting Macclesfield to return to a Four Corners welcome in Siddington.

Some short sections of A roads but mostly on quiet Cheshire B roads and minor country lanes, ideal for a first time audax.
