Maps & Guides

Middlesex offered a whole new experience to the route, closing the loop though rolling countryside roads and historically significant towns. A lot of the Experiences and the Restaurants here really reflect the agricultural heritage. The Clocktower Inn illustrated this perfectly as the tastefully restored historic building took us back in time in stunning Victorian-era rooms. The Inn is owned by its executive chef and unsurprisingly, it has an incredible restaurant, too. There are many other fantastic stops here, but a few of the biker-friendly ones we recommend that you cannot miss are Hogtown Cycles, Arva Flour Mills (historically significant, with a great shop and cafe), and any one of the fantastic restaurants on the itinerary.
