Is that Hartest Hill? A few bumps round there and Glemsford way.
Always quite liked cycling out in the Newmarket direction, there are a few hills out near Denham that you can turn into a nice loop

that's the one. i have a lot more exploring to do. as i understand the area north of ipswich has a few lumps too.
hartest area is nice lanes though. from there down to Clare and all that. and what Suffolk lacks in hills it sometimes more than makes up for with brutal winds

Sshhhh, don't tell everyone. My standard hill reps loop is down that way. Don't want it getting busy.

lanes are quiet and are plentiful. but there is one major problem - no hills whatsoever. i have sought out the hardest hill in Suffolk and it was depressingly short and not even that steep. but i am slowly building up enough local knowledge to keep it interesting. and am getting variety by using different bikes and surfaces.
the missus was really worried that the cycling might be a little boring around here. but i said wherever we moved after two years it would get boring. so am sucking it up.
on the plus side we have three pretty big gardens.
