August 4, 2024,the Bell at Aldworth loop

Quiet ride on paved roads. Beautiful countryside. Pub at Aldworth has won plenty of awards. A bit of old england. Food is mainly sandwiches but at reasonable price. Always good ales on offer. After the pub the next 5 miles is mainly freewheel. Whizz along and see Britain at its best
