Distance: 74km, altitude: 678m

I’ve heard a lot of good things about Bakergirl. So in due course I will need to check out their cinnamon rolls.

Milkshed 2.0

Distance: 52km, altitude: 310m

The newbie ride to the Milkshed is always a great ride, just long enough to justify a bacon sarnie at the coffee stop. This route is similar in distance, but just a nice change from the usual.

One-and-a-half Brill

Because just Brill is not good enough.

Aston and Dragon Hill

Distance: 123km, altitude: 852m.

Two hills, one of my favourite and one of my most hated hills in the area. You guess which is which.

Coffee in a Yurt

Distance: 66km, altitude 503m

Following Anouk’s discovery of a Yurt, I had to lead a Condors’ social to this place.

Anouk’s Yurt 95

Distance: 95km, altitude: 877m.

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/30011716

Anouk fancied a different stop, and Google came to the rescue. Turns out you can have coffee/cake/lunch in a YURT! Anouk made the route, I made one edit and managed to add a bit of my signature shitty gravel road to the route. I just love CX.

The stop is early on in the ride, so ideal for breakfast! Or a late start, with early lunch.

Sunny Social to Isis Farm

Distance: 50km, altitude: 250m.

Picture a sunny day. Time for a beer. How little riding can you get away with to earn that recovery drink?

Charlbury and the White Horse Century

Distance: 162km, altitude: 1323m.

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/29739312

When you are planning a (imperial) century, but want to go to the Old Shed, so have to loop-round just to make sure your cafe legs don’t kick in too early.
This ride includes one of my favourite hills out of Charlbury (twice) and the hill I hate most (Dragon Hill/White Horse). At least I managed to get to the top without touching the floor last time.
