Romsey-Stockbridge circuit

Starting from Green Acre, Halterworth Lane, Romsey SO51 9AD at 10:00. 34 miles, Average .
This was the ride which had to be cancelled in 2025 due to excess heat!
David writes:
The route contains bits of which we've ridden with the TC before but hopefully still a different and varied route for most.
10am start from Green Acre, Halterworth Lane, Romsey SO51 9AD; coffee at the Wellow fishery after 16km and then via small lanes to Stockbridge for lunch (at about 37km, bring sandwiches) and then a loop back home for a total of 54km.
There are obvious ways to shorten or lengthen the route as required.
My planner says 500m of ascent and descent, most of that clustered around 4 locations on the route, two before the coffee stop and then one before and after lunch.  The majority of the distance is reasonably easy going.
I expect Alison will provide some nibbles at home when we get back, for those who are able to hang around.
