This one is a good option route and aimed at better roads, Not exactly flat with short hills around Harthill and Bickerton, but the rest is flat on some of my real favourite lanes. However the option to make it feel much tougher is to head home through Carden park, thereby shortening the route by 6 miles and on hillier terrain.
There isn’t really a poor bit now, as Peckforton lane has had all the bad areas resurfaced so pretty good now, but do have to use main road past Bickerton Poacher.
However the route does show Pump lane ( dreadfully bad strech) but I never use that, it’s plotted to give me an idea of total distance. I inevitable decide, on route, which way to finish the ride. If I want it hillier then I head for home at Horten Green. & head up through Tilston & Carden park for 42 miles & 4 less than the route or I go Shotlach Farndon Bruera for flat one and 50 miles. If There is any sort of stiff NW wind then Carden park is better finish option. This route is pretty good for NW winds as Peckforton provides fair cover after Bunbary, which is my cafe stop and open on Mondays now ( closes Sunday)
And if I am suffering a bit I can stop again at Farndon Lewis’s or Luci’s at Aldford ( cracking little cafe now)

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
