• Ooh. My parents live very close to bewl water. It's lovely around there. I'm guessing this is all on road but my first long ride was around the dirt tracks of bewl water. I can still remember the saddle ache...

    Hi spybot

    The routes (and profiles) are linked to in my original post (the 20/40/60 text). I haven't done a reccy there, but I know this will be road bike suitable, so I doubt there is any (intentional) dirt track, short of the ubiquitous potholes. However, I think some of the ride is on some closed roads at Bewl (although the main section of each is obviously on the local roads). But, as you say, the East Sussex/Kent area is beautiful.

    The forecast this far ahead is notoriously unreliable, but the met office data currently suggests a cool (as cool as two weeks back - which at the time felt positively balmy) but predominantly dry day.

    Watch me eat my words as the week progresses and the forecast gets clearer!
