    The route took us 47 miles through Norton, Pirton, Defford, Strensham, Ryall and into Upton where those of us gasping for a coffee were disappointed to learn that slave master Alex was only going to allow a refreshment stop on the way back. With tongues hanging out we pressed on through Longdon, to Castlemorton Common where we had to negotiate our way round a flock of sheep in the road.

    Then it was back to Upton via Druggers End (no sign of Lance Armstrong) and a delightful lane which afforded lovely views across the valley to Bredon Hill, albeit at the expense of a tough little climb. When we reached the marina in Upton we were finally allowed () a refreshment break where coffee, carrot cake and bacon sarnies were duly scoffed. Suitably fortified we made our way home via Earl’s Croome, Kerswell Green, Brook End and Norton

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
