We will be heading North east towards the Wolds and after passing through Market Rasen, we will reach the long drag up to the top at Walesby. This is the only hill on the route. At the top we turn left along the B1225 to Caistor. Even though this is a B road, it came be quite busy as it runs along the top of the Wolds so single file for a couple of miles until we head left off the main road and carefully cross the A46 Caistor Bypass into Caistor itself. We leave Caistor on the Brigg Road, to head down to the Wolds Edge Cafe which is on the left. We should arrive there at 23 miles.
After the cafe we retrace our steps, back up (the short climb) to Caistor and rejoin the A46 Caistor bypass and head south. After a short distance, we turn off right towards Morton to avoid staying on the bypass as it's steep downhill, it's got a really rough surface and potholes galore. This is on the route for the Tour of Britain so they might fix it soon. We rejoin the A46 further down, before turning right off the A46 shortly thereafter and into the lanes near North Owersby and wind our way back almost directly south towards Welton and Dunholme.
Total Distance is 47 miles
Stop is at 23 miles
Total Climb is only 1,320ft despite Walesby Hill so it has less climbing than a trip down to Velo Verde and most of the route is flat.
