ソーブリッジワースのおすすめツーリングルート

Great place for a coffee. Cycle repair

Always a heart-in-mouth traverse for me, on the rare occasion I need to use it. There's a "cycle track" of sorts hewn out, which is fine if you stay slow and stick to it, but I just don't trust this track.

Sod the ford and just use the bridge.

Lovely little spot for a cuppa & great cake!

Best Coffee

Ride westbound for the downhill. Deceptively tiring eastbound, especially the first half, followed by a slight uphill grade which doesn't let your legs recover.

One of those climbs, westbound, which isn't particularly steep, but it's how long it goes on for.

An awkward climb westbound. Awkward because it's steep, but the cars can get pretty fast, which increases the disparity between your speed and theirs. You will also need to pull out in order to get past cars parked on the road. If you are approaching here from the east, having sat waiting for the gates to go up on the level crossing at the station, I advise letting the queue of cars pass you before proceeding. Easy flowing downhill eastbound, with no parked cars.
