What's New
The churches and
chapels listed on the 2011 Sponsorship/Application Form (63)
are correct. Be advised therefore that
Route Planner lists three
that are no longer relevant to Ride and Stride:
(1) St. John the
Baptist at Wakerley is actually in Northamptonshire and we no longer include it
(makes it easier for you!).
(2) The Methodist Chapel in Whissendine closed a couple of years ago and so when you go to Whissendine you will only be able to count St. Andrews
(makes it tougher for you!).
(3) RAF Cottesmore closed earlier in 2011 together with its chapel (it was a cul
de sac on the route).

We are indebted to Andy Walker for designing and providing an Excel template for planning your route. This shows the number of churches, the mileage and time it should take to complete your own chosen route. You can vary your average cycling speed, the time you intend stopping at each church and your starting time (if not 10 am). Click here to find out how to do it.
