October 18, 2025, Cambridge-St Neots loop

Not the original route because the road to Gamlingay and Cambrige Busway Cycleway were closed. Also we went across Wimpole Estate instead of going round it. Found out you don't have to pay to go in the walking/cycling path! I made the route based on another one someone shared. My only thought is that I'd change the first ~18km to find quieter roads. These were A roads and quite traficky.
