Hi guys,
When I lived in St Neots in the summer months I was riding to work 2 times a week, this was a total of 30 miles each way.
Since moving to Brampton I have not managed to figure out a sensible route that is A Safe as possible (avoiding main road) and B a distance not over 35 miles (70 miles total is more than enough).
The club has some very talented "route masters" and i'd love to plug a route into the garmin and give it go!
So specifics:
High Street BRAMPTON
to
Granta Park, ABINGTON
Much appreciated

Have you also given any thought to using the path next to the guided busway ?

Hi David
Do you include the new cycle routes around the south of Cambridge around Addenbrooks through to Harston, If I recall there are cycle paths from Granta Park to Cambridge but not sure how they all link up.

Anyone at work ride in that you could ask? It sounds like cycle paths may your best bet once you get to Cambridge, but you might have to compromise speed, especially if the surfaces are poor.
Must admit, I don't know the roads round there especially well
