Great Little Cafe with Friendly Staff. Indoor and Outdoor Seating. Not much room for bikes but solo or small groups definitely worth a stop if you are passing.

When cycling along the Leicester Road (A426) Cycle Path, be aware that some sections may have concrete segregators separating the cycle lane from vehicular traffic. These barriers, while enhancing cyclist safety, can be less visible in poor weather conditions. To ensure your safety, especially during low-light or adverse weather, consider using high-visibility clothing and front lights to increase your visibility to other road users. Additionally, always remain vigilant for pedestrians who might inadvertently step into the cycle lane, particularly in shared-use areas. [1] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ce95v6z6vzyo

What inevitably catches the eye of the passing cyclist are the modern heirs of the beautiful historic windmills. Centuries ago, our ancestors were clever enough to use the power of the wind for their own purposes, by driving millstones and grinding grain into flour, for example. Often placed in the landscape in dozens, this modern and unaesthetic variant - in the past, people took great care to design the architecture of each individual mill - is used to generate electricity. These wind farms are not without controversy, as they are often built without consideration for the landscape, and above all, the slender blades can become a death trap for birds.

A lovely stop with seating inside or outside. Modern Cafe And Delicatessen Serving Hot And Cold Drinks, Light Bites, Homemade Cakes, Pies and much more

St John the Baptist church, a beautiful place to take a moment mid-ride. You can walk all around the church and marvel at the architecture.
