Description
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 Tilleys 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.
The control locations pinned on the map top right, are the exact locations of the EBrevet controls and your phone app will work within a 250m radius of those pinned locations. These locations are also described in the route sheet, which can be downloaded below.
