The A ride went up Nuthill and then up through Buckholt Woods, before turning towards Stroud.
We left the main Stroud Road above Sheepscombe, descending to Jack’s Green and then continued along Wick Street down to Stroud.
We had a pleasant stop at the Kitsch Coffee and Wine Bar in Ebley, then went along the canal to Bond’s Mill, then toured the Oldends Industrial Estate via Brunel Way before proceeding through Great Oldbury to Whitminster and Saul.
After a long chase, we caught a couple up the hill past Madam’s End, before returning to Quedgeley where we split up.
