Hi vinny,
You've got access to a lot of quite country lanes to the South of King's Norton. This is a modified version of a route i do quite regularly on Sundays and is pretty good. http://g.co/maps/rwpzu

Andy Reeve replied to LS's discussion 'Cities fit for cycling'
it does appear to be a london centric article as I think the main issue of trucks and lorries is mainly occuring in London. Still not sure why any cyclist would be on the inside of a lorry at a junction myself but better education is needed on all…

I couldn't believe it.
The AUK 100 "Rutland and Beyond' has 1290m of climbing. It was deceptively 'flat'.
12th March. There should be places left to Pay & Play. You can follow me.

Also, riding the Shakespeare 100 on April 1st. Had email to say not many spaces left if anyone fancies a nice ride out.
Hopefully that won't be as breezy as the September ride having to pedal downhill out of Temple Grafton was not much fun no…

i'm doing the shakespeare 100km in april which is an earlier version of the MacRide I think.
The one I'm doing in September is a memorial ride for my brother from Birmingham to Weymouth in 2 days. more details on…
James Lee replied to Andy Reeve's discussion 'Cycling stops in the Cotswolds'
Is that the MacRide?
Mucklow is not steep enough, its just a one mile 'inconvenient incline'.
Weatheroak is not long enough, its a 'short honk'.
But with Rose Hill, Beacon Road in Great Barr, Charlemont Rd in West…

Nice saddle. Thanks, Andy. I'll do the introductions between it and the arse at the weekend! ;0)

Weatheroak Hill.

Nice to eat is only one choice, and that is the Nimmings NT Car Park and cafe at the top of St Kenelm's Pass. Bacon butties are on lovely thick crusty bread, and are worth the climb alone.
