Looking like another soggy Sunday - so proposing a 3hr tempo loop from Cary - with a potential brief respite at Bean Shot Sherborne if the massed riders decree. Anyone fancying a faster/longer ride feel free to find your group by posting something on BCC Chat WhatsApp.

Meet from 9am for coffee at Burnt Honey, Cary, for a 9.15am depart. Out on Torbay Road, up to B3153 heading though Lovington, Keinton Mandeville and carrying onto Somerton. Out to Long Load/Long Sutton, down to Martock. Over to Stoke Sub-Hamdon, up Ham Hill. Over to the south of Yeovil, into Stoford, Bradford Abbas and up to Sherborne. Return to Cary via Poyntington, Corton Denham, the Cadburys.

73km route with 780m elevation - 26+km/hr pace
