Last week I commuted to work 'off road' for the first time. A friend from work who knows the area very well took it on himself to plan an off road route through farm tracks, fields and woods and I pinched the GPX file, uploaded it to Komoot and used an old phone for a GPS. It was unbelieveably fun and enjoyable, I saw a roe deer and then some hares in a field of linseed and only saw about two cars the whole route. Was comfortably the nicest commute I've ever had and a really bloody fun ride.
Took and hour longer than my usual ride in but so worth it. I'm wondering how I'll go back to the regular ride now.
