The C7 is my least favourite road locally. Awful in the winter with giant water filled potholes and terrible visabilty in summer for drivers as the trees almost create a strobe effect and not one safe place to cross the centre line to be overtaken as a cyclist. I must check out the Lewes to Polgate A27 cycle lane that actually looks alright
And you have to go on the c7 for a short section around piddinghoe.
If this was a proper paved cycle path it would be used by families and commuters. As it is it just feels like a tick box green initiative. Its much quicker (and only option on a road bike) to brave the c7 which is an awful road to ride on. I got clipped by a car riding it a few weeks ago.
