Hi All,

I am visiting the Isle of Wight soon as was after any information on cycle routes and cafe stops on the island.

I know of the Randonee route but are there any others between the 60 and 100 mile mark that anyone knows? Are there any roads to be avoided?

Also, any cafe stop recommedations would be great?

Cheers

Martin

    Is that the round the island one? I did that while I was there last week and it seemed to take you past loads of villages/towns offering tea-rooms & pubs a plenty. I was carrying the food/water I needed so I didn't stop off and buy food.

    I did quite a bit of ad-hoc cycling while I was there and I didn't really find any road that was unrideable from a traffic perspective although there are quite a few roads which have absolutely massive potholes in them. This warning applies to both the main roads and the minor side roads.
