Evesham Wheelers
1 Dover’s Hill This renowned climb needs no introduction, used multiple times for the National Hill-climb Champs and a favourite when riding in the area. Tough all the way up, it gets even steeper at the top.
2 Chipping Campden You can’t get more quintessentially Cotswolds than Chipping Campden, with its 14th century high street, resplendent with honey-coloured stone buildings. Care is needed though as its tourist population makes it busy all year round.
3 Ebrington Ridge After a steady climb up you find yourself riding along the top of the ridge on a narrow and quiet road with spectacular views across the Cotswolds in all directions.
Favourite cafe The Old Church
Set on the edge of the Cotswolds, this cafe and shop are the pride of the community — the old church it is based in was falling into disrepair, so the locals got together and bought the property, restoring and repurposing the building to serve the local area.
