| Having recently taken up cycling (6 months) I was looking for something a little more challenging. This route is ideal. Lovely scenery, once you get out of Corby, and tough enough to get you working hard. Thoroughly enjoyed it. | ||

| Tried this yesterday, real nice ride brilliant view. couple of testing climbs. My first ride of ten miles will defo do again Dont take a wrong turning into Rockingham, as I did, or else you'll be faced with ten mins of hard climbing up Rocky Hill. | ||

| I do this route from Uppingham, preferring to cut straight from Cottingham to Gretton since I don't like Corby much. Its a great route with a wide variety of gradients. To cut it short for a 40-50 minute ride you can cut through Great Easton-Caldecott-Lyddington, but be warned that the climb from Lyddington to Seaton road is some serious gradient. | ||
