If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour.
This 11.4 mile loop starts at Southampton Common, heading north on quiet roads to the Forestry Commission site at Lordswood along a Roman Road route, discovering Iron Age earthworks. There’s plenty to see along the way, including the Hawthorns Urban Wildlife Centre on the Common, the Warrior’s Memorial dedicated to a horse who served in the First World War. See the highly rated Municipal Golf Course and Chilworth Manor, now a hotel and conference centre, set in acres of beautiful landscaped gardens.
