I'm at my parents house this weekend, without a road bike just my mtb. so couldn't do my usual beloved chilterns loop. So I grabbed a few OS maps and worked out a new off-road route which shadowed the first half of the route to Henley and back. Discovered some new bridle ways and paths, which was nice, including a steep chalk shute which was a bit sketchy. Picked up plenty of bramble scratches and nettle stings too, but in all about 15 miles. Definitely one is the longest mtb rides I've done.
