2009-08-09 Sun - Ride to St Margarets

i notice you have to drop down the 'downs' down bluebell hill and then go straight back up near detling hill (anyone with gears bring them! anyone thinking of doing it brakeless? i would think again.)as there doesn't seem to be a way of keeping the height unless you stay north of the m2 and skirt walderslade. but that means conurbation, chavs, industrial/housing estates so hills and trees is probably better
there is a good pub called the hook and hatchet at Hucking that you pass by but it's a bit soon in the journey to stop. the roads/views along the north downs are really nice, if you have the weather for it it should be a good ride.

Ha ha chavs in walderslade you got that right plus lots of tinkers at detling and bluebell hill :~}
