Ashford (Kent) #2676 Free
This single-stage route from Ashford (Kent) covers 8.6 miles in about 38 minutes through Stanhope, Kingsnorth and Bridgefield, with speeds from 30 mph to 70 mph. It is slightly longer than the other route from this centre but has far fewer traffic lights, so it leans on roundabouts and turns instead.
Watch Out For
- 10 roundabouts: give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- A pedestrian crossing to check before you move off.
Route Features
- 17 left turns, 8 right turns and 6 traffic lights.
- Three 50 mph waypoints, plus a bike lane to watch for cyclists.
- Roads include Kingsnorth Road and the A2070.
Test Manoeuvres
- Practise a pull up on the left near Avenue Jacques Faucheux.
Key Tips
- Rehearse roundabout lane choice and exit signals, since they make up most of the junction work.
- Match your speed to each limit change between 30 mph and 70 mph.
