SPOKE ROUTE 4
A good few hours on the bike starting out east and dropping down into Bramfield before turning north through Walkern and circling round the back of Stevenage. The ride back south takes you through Fisher's Green and on to Whitwell before arriving back at HQ. A ride for the more navigationally-savvy but worth it for the quality of the trails.
