칠콤 최고의 러닝 경로

The Handlebar Cafe, now operated by Cadence Cycle Club, is a unique and award-winning community café and bike workshop located on Garnier Road at the foot of St Catherine's Hill and the Viaduct Way cycle path in Winchester. Conceived by local teenagers through the SPUD Youth program, the building's distinct architecture resembles two railway carriages to reflect the site's history as an old railway line. It serves as a popular hub for cyclists and walkers, offering locally-sourced food, specialty coffee, and essential bike repair services, all within a welcoming, dog-friendly environment that provides lovely views over the Itchen Valley.

St Catherine's Hill is a prominent chalk downland hill on the outskirts of Winchester, notable for its layered historical and ecological importance. Now a biological Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) managed as a nature reserve, its summit is ringed by the impressive earthworks of a univallate Iron Age hillfort dating back over 2,000 years. The top is marked by a distinctive copse of beech trees, known as 'The Clump', which contains the scant ruins of the 12th-century St Catherine's Chapel, while the hillside features a turf-cut labyrinth known as the Miz-Maze; the entire site provides spectacular views over the city, the Itchen Valley, and supports a rich variety of wildflowers and butterflies, including the protected Chalkhill Blue.

The café was recently renamed and is now called the Cadence Club Café. Perfect for a quick refreshment while strolling along the River Itchen.
