CAFE STOP: The Beech House Beaconsfield

Beaconsfield bound in a low Chilterns winter ride …. all the usual fun of a West London Cycling Sunday ride, starting at 9am from the Polish War Memorial (A40 Ruislip / Northolt) on Sunday 2nd February. Getchaself fit for the Rustynax Rides now!

Seer Green was historically part of the mass of Cherry Orchards that populated South Buckinghamshire. When John Betjeman wrote ‘Come friendly bombs, drop on Slough’ he was actually protesting about the destuction of the Cherry Orchards to make way for Slough’s Industrialisation. We ride through Seer, and look forward to another cafe stop at The Beech House in Beaconsfield, which is fast becoming one our favourite stops!

Just turn up at 9am at the Polish War Memorial (A40 Ruislip / Northolt) with the route downloaded on your device. To get the route you need to sign up (free – see button above to subscribe) and then you’ll have access to our routes via the members’ zone tab above (choose routes and rides).

We decide on the day as to how many groups we split into (usually 4 groups during summer) it really depends on who turns up. The faster groups will usually do the longer of the two options with the aim of us all reaching coffee stops at similar times.

You can choose your route on the day, and which group you ride in. As stated above, we generally have several groups on the road, depending on how many people are riding, so it’s flexible and tailored to riders’ needs. The slowest group will generally wait for the slowest rider (or split into sub groups) but you should be able to manage 30kph on flat stretches with an average speed of around 22kph over the distance. Faster groups will be more speedy of course.

OPTION ONE: Seer Ecstacy 67km

OPTION TWO: Seer Ecstacy Extra 71km
