Twist & Shout - Stumpfield Rd

In honor of a certain past club president who names his Strava rides for Classic Hits, “Twist and Shout” does its fair share of gyrations! The majority of the route is along quiet and somewhat hilly country roads, with a good refueling stop at Jones General Store in Kingston (mile 32). Historic homes are a common feature along the way. On Willow Rd in East Kingston we’ll pass one of the oldest farms around - Fieldstone Farm, dating from 1690. Kingston was originally granted to 15 fortunate men by King William and Queen Mary of England in 1694.

Lunch and libations after the ride at the Water Street Cafe at Crave, a converted 1850s train depot in Amesbury.
