This was much better, thanks! Only bad bit was getting lost in the little section near Woodford after dark, I left a bit late. But no flats this time.
@giofox do you have an updated route for Cambridge? saw you talking about it a few pages back, maybe it wouldn't be appropriate at this time of year but I'm curious to see what my non-Epping options are from North.

Can you share your ride, curious to understand where that place is..
I do not have an up to date offroad route to Cambridge other than the one posted here a while back. Anyway, going north, my favourite places are towards Herts, particularly Broxbourne Woods and surroundings, the two routes below are always good.

Never tried that path linking Sewardstone Rd to the bottom of Mott Street, only done it from Daws Hill. Might be muddy, might be gated.
The part of route between Whitehall Plain and Hollow Pond is pure SFAB this time of the year.
The canal is not bad early on weekends, especially if going out of London rather than coming back.
Not sure how familiar you are with Epping, but the main path is a good one to follow for a first outing on a new bike, route below. Have a look on my RWGPS as well if you want, but bear in mind that routes are very much seasonal in Epping.
