Coming soon ( late April/early May ).
Each route from this book has short-cuts and extensions.
Main route: 18.8 miles ( 325 metres of climbing )
Short-cut: - 12 miles
Extensions: +3.5 & +2 miles
Suitability
This ride uses mostly non-technical, easy-to-follow trails, which never stray too far from civilisation ( or pubs ). There isn't too much climbing and none of it is very steep, and there are plenty of bail-out options in the form of country roads if needed, so overall it is suitable for anyone who isn't looking for a hard, technical ride.
Technical rating
The trails in this part of the country aren't very technical, so it won't be a surprise that this route isn't very technical, but it isn't dull either.
Terrain
A lot of well draining doubletracks, but also a few that can suffer from vehicle use after wet weather. There aren't any long, difficult climbs, but enough to get your lungs working.
