Day 005/20. Cafe atop an old railway embankment

This is the new(ish) Handlebar cafe opened recently on the embankment of the old Didcot, Newbury and Southampton Railway line, long closed and now a cycle path.
The Handlebar Café is a cafe and bike workshop on the Viaduct Cycle Path at the foot of St Catherine's Hill, south of Winchester.
It offers refreshments, bike repairs, accessories and information on walks and rides around the area.
The project was created by a group of local teenagers working with the charity Spud.  Designed to look like 2 rail carriages passing each other, Spud co-ordinated the building of the café and workshop and now it is completed, Bespoke Biking operates them.
The café and workshop opens 7 days a week and has regular bike repair slots, bike hire, organised cycle rides and more.
Very decent coffee too !!
