Oxford (Cowley) #1377 Free
Route 1377 covers 14.3 km in about 32 minutes as one stage, reaching south-east through Temple Cowley, Garsington and Horspath. It packs in 13 left turns against just four rights, among the most turn-heavy routes here, and tops out at 60 mph on rural roads rather than the 70 seen on other loops.
Watch Out For
- Narrow country lanes toward Garsington off Cuddesdon Road with bends and oncoming traffic.
- Two roundabouts where you give way to the right.
- A run of left turns needing early signals and observation.
Route Features
- The faster Garsington Road carrying quicker traffic.
- The busy Watlington Road junction near the retail park.
- A 50 mph section where speeds pick up.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the centre.
Key Tips
- Read the country bends early and hold a safe line.
- Signal and position in good time for the many left turns.
