Game: Name that road!

[Alex321]

That looks familiar, but it isn't where I first thought it was.

All roads lead to Wales...

I'm going to make a guess at somewhere on (the) Welsh Road, which those who've cycled in South Warwickshire may know. It sometimes goes by this name, sometimes by others, but can be traced from the MK area up through Southam and towards Warwick.

I haven't got time right now to scour its whole length, but I'd be looking for that little wiggle followed by a rise, and maybe heading away from Wales to judge by the shadows.

I've done a fair bit of riding just there .

Will have a look later

I thought it looked like the Fosse Way, but clearly it wasn't. The heavy clues above gave me a new area to search!

Glad to have been of assistance 😊. I was expecting it to be more on the Kenilworth-Southam side, but as I said, no time to check (as I'm on holiday and doing things like real-world cycling). At some time I have ridden all of that route, but there are few real landmarks.

I have almost ridden that stretch of road on my way from visiting one sister in Coventry to my other one in Towcester, but I opted for the nicer route through Napton-on-the-hill and Priors Marston instead.
