Hi,
Just changed job. Start week after next. New route to work would include the A505 for 2 mile section from Abington to Whittlesford Station.
I'd rather take alternative route away from A505 as it seems to be just a tad too busy for my liking. Guess I have two questions.
Anyone from Cambs area ride the 505? Is it to be avoided, and is it really as bad as it seems.
Ideally I'd like a route which takes me from Hadstock to Hinxton then I can use the excellent cycle path up the side of the A1301 all the way to Whittlesford Station. I just can't seem to find a good route under / over the A11 which doesn't detour down as far as Stumps Cross, or use the A505 section up at Abington.
All suggestions greatfully recieved.
P.S Have used the cycle planner etc ... currently the best route is into Babraham across to Sawston and down, but this adds another 4 mile onto a 25 mile trip.
Cheers.
