• if you are heading over the downs link it is advisable to join it at wonnersh as the part from st marthas hill to wonnersh is going to be impossible fixed as i struggled massively on a tourer and the sand at the top of the hill by the church is deep deep deep. The rest of the route is easily navigable a fact t which I can attest as I have ridden the downs link multiple times. I agree the thames path ish area will be slow going.

    The alternative option is route 21 from greenwich, mostly traffic free but you will probably have similar navigation errors as with anything sustrans if anyone has experience with their routes they can be patchy in places. A recce is advised.
