    MARSHAL PLAN

    Ride leader: Sophie
    Back markers: Pat and Alan

    Gathering on Town Bridge - make sure we don't block whole bridge, leave a walkway.

    1. Millbrook crossing - Wayne and Pat, then Pat join the back of the ride

    2. Bottom of High Street – Mark to stand at the pedestrian crossing and block cars turning up the High Street (we’ll be coming off the pavement and turning right up the High Street)

    3. Upper High Street – Pip to block cars heading down towards North Street while we turn right, and Max to block cars coming up towards Upper High Street

    4. Upper High Street / Epsom Road roundabout – Jaz

    5. Dene Road - Mick to block cars coming round from Eastgate Gardens onto Denmark Road

    6. Denmark Road – Kaizad

    7. York Road – Bethan

    8. York Road / Stoke Road crossroads – Nicky, Wayne and Mark

    9. Nightingale Road - Max

    10. Recreation Road roundabout – Pip and Jaz

    11. Stocton Road roundabout – Mick and Kaizad

    12. Woodbridge Road roundabout – Bethan, Nicky and Wayne

    13. Ladymead – Mark and Max (only block one lane, keep other one free)

    14. Walnut Tree Close - Pip to direct people into cycle lane

    15. Turn onto bridge to university – Jaz to block cars coming north up Walnut Tree Close while we turn right

    16. Bridge - Mick to warn people of bollard and encourage them to keep to left half

    17. Perimeter Road - Kaizad

    18. (Pause to regroup once on road, and again at top of hill above lake)

    19. Cycle path turn after cathedral - Bethan to direct people

    20. Benbrick Road – Nicky to block cars coming round from Alresford Road

    21. The Chase – Wayne

    22. Old Palace Road - Mark

    23. Denzil Road - Max

    24. Farnham Road crossroads – Jaz and Pip

    25. Wodeland Avenue – Mick

    26. The Mount crossroads – Bethan and Kaizad

    27. Bottom of Mount Pleasant - Wayne to stop cars coming up, then block Portsmouth Road for the left turn. (If someone does want to turn in, I think there’s space to allow one car in and ask them to wait at the bottom, so they can get off the main road. So maybe position yourself a few metres up from the junction)

    28. Portsmouth Road onto Bury Street – Nicky

    29. Bury Street onto High Street – Max and Mark

    When we get back to the bridge, please chivvy people off the road onto the bridge, and remind them not to block the whole bridge so people can still get past.

    Then encourage them to come for a drink at the Britannia!

    CALCULATE CALORIES

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
