This single-stage route is 8.5 miles and 37 minutes, covering Kings Heath, Moseley, Sparkhill, Yardley Wood and Shirley, with limits of only 20 mph and 30 mph. It is shorter than most of the 18 routes from this centre, yet its eight roundabouts match the highest count here.

Watch Out For

  • Eight roundabouts: give way to traffic from the right and signal left on exit.
  • Three school zones with a reduced limit, one close to the start, so watch for children.
