Easy road ride. Great for any fitness level. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

The Blue Egg Café

Highlight • Cafe

Such a great mid-ride stop, where almost everything is made fresh on site or sourced locally, the cafe at the Blue Egg is a real institution for cyclists and a regular haunt for southern road cycling pros in the UK. It's open daily from 9am to 5pm, but closes at 4pm on a Sunday. Three days a week there's fresh sour dough bread so try and time your ride appropriately ;) The cafe also does its own super delicious, natural energy bars with dates, oats, and nuts so no excuses if your energy dwindles on a long ride.

The Bell

Highlight • Pub

Lovely pub, that during the Dunwich Dynamo, opens late to serve hot food out in their garden (chilli with rice, burger, ratatouille with rice and veggie burgers) and beers, softs etc. as usual.

Now called “Buddy & Rhino”. Under new management, still a great cafe. Lovely lunch!

Finchingfield Village Green

Highlight • Settlement

A beautiful little village which is always busy with cyclists, motorcyclists, classic cars and more. The pub is great, but does get a little busy, so there's a little tea shop on the green, or a bistro bar next door to the pub.

Winners Tea Rooms

Highlight • Cafe

Great location overlooking the village green but Finchingfield can get super-busy in the summer so be prepared for queues on a nice weekend.

Open 9am-4pm (closed Tue)
