Route Description
Sky Ride Local in Southampton
If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, a
Starting from Redbridge railway station this 14.4 mile Steady ride is for anyone who wants to ride that little bit further but still enjoy the relaxed pace and to savour some great country scenes. Our ride is a rural delight, taking us immediately into the countryside with views of the River Test and an Elizabethan cottage. Our stop is at the lovely Compass Inn village pub in Winsor for a well-deserved drink. There's even a ford to cool off in if the weather is really kind!
There is one short section of rutted bridleway on the route so we recommend 'no road bikes' but it is up to each individual, you certainly do not need a mountain bike for this route.
