The route

From Bicester (OX25, OX26, OX27) the natural line out is the M40 J9 and the A41, joining M4 J11, then A33 and Caversham Road for the last part of the journey. The whole thing runs to about 38.0 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 1h 05m off-peak becomes 1h 15m when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.

Caversham Road or the Richfield Avenue rendezvous point set for the weekend. Richfield Avenue closes to general traffic across the weekend, so pickups run from the signed rendezvous on Caversham Road.
