Running 18.0 km in about 37 minutes, this single-stage route reaches Church Brampton and Harlestone along with Kingsthorpe, Spring Park and New Duston. It is the only route here without a 20 mph zone, starting at 30 mph and rising to 60, and it has the most left turns of any route, 15 against 7 right.

Watch Out For

  • 15 left turns, the most at this centre, so mirror and signal work is constant.
  • 60 mph rural roads out to the villages.
  • Only 6 roundabouts and 7 sets of traffic lights.
