Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Climbs 30m in 800m with the steepest section in the middle - a good, sharp test. If descending, watch out for the mini-roundabout junction at the bottom past the church.

Bould Brothers Coffee

Highlight • Cafe

Superb independent coffee shop for a quick caffeine recharge. 'The Magic' (triple shot of their guest espresso topped up with milk to around the size of a flat white) will send you flying home.

A great view over the River Cam from Magdalene Street / Bridge Street. Watch the expert and not-so-expert on the punts as they glide by.
