1. 25 mile undulating tour of south Northampton. Mainly on roads passing through Milton Malsor, Gayton, Blisworth, Quinton, Preston Deenery, Gt Houghton (great elevated views across Northampton just before you enter the village and a great little pub to pass in the village), on to Little Houghton and then cycle track along the Nene Vally Way and the River Nene to Brackmills, leave Brackmills and take on Houghton Hill this is a very steep climb up into Hardingstone village to pass the Sun Inn (you will need a drink after that hill!) Suitable for ATB and Road bikes but not for time trials.
Landmarks/Sites to see?
Passes lots of pubs so have some money ready. Great pub at the top of the long steep Houghton Hill after 24 miles.
