I'm Guy Kesteven, writer of the official Cycling UK guidebook for the new Marcher Castles Way long distance gravel/MTB cycle route. In part one of three taster videos we ride from medieval Shrewsbury, past Roman Wroxeter and the brooding Wrekin to the birthplace of the industrial revolution at Ironbridge. Then it's on through Much Wenlock and along the stunning timeless countryside of Wenlock Edge and the Clee Hills to the gorgeous, gourmet castle town of Ludlow.
I created and narrated these films while riding the route checking recce but the finalised GPX can be found here: https://www.cyclinguk.org/routes/long...
