Ok all... Going to be doing a nice leg stretch ride Sunday.. Flitch Way end to end. So starting at Braintree train station at 09:30 (pay and display I believe still) then go all way to Stansted and back... Bacon roll stop for re-fuel on way Not too technical of a ride but more of a stamina ride so a good 32+ miles... nice boggy bit at halfway point for the mud fans out their to play in... rest is just single track along old railway route.... All welcome to join in... |

Might be in on this. They're currently sticking a railway carriage on the path at Rayne station, only a small diversion though. |

Yeah it's crap riding around Braintree. Wish there was some exciting stuff to ride but not going to find that living here! |

Looks a nice ride where the route follows the B1256 is there a bike path? Quite fancy doing the ride with my son but don't like the idea of a 9 year old on a fast country road  When the route leaves the road is it sign posted ??
