This is one of my favourite roads when it comes to road cycling in Sussex.

If you're cycling over the downs via Devil's Dyke, you have a choice of two roads - Devil's Dyke Road and Saddlescombe Road. Although the latter is more direct, Devil's Dyke Road is much quieter and more scenic. There's even a well-surfaced gravel track running parallel to the road.
