Super ride but bit loose in places

Execellent mix of trails, although the sandy ones are hard work

excellent rides

Created for the Millennium, a superb steel sculpture in the parish on the road to Butley. It shows St Andrew the fisherman, with a catch of herrings and eels. At his feet is the church, which is now the only church in the parish of Capel St Andrew. It bears the date 1539, when Butley Priory was dissolved.

It's a dead end for roadies as there's only one tarmacked road to it but it's a nice ride and there's the Tinto Café horsebox at the car park, which does hot drinks, sandwiches and toasties, cakes and snacks. Officially it closes at 4pm but it was still serving at 4.30 when I was there, thankfully.

A sprawling 3,700-acre (1,500 ha) mixed woodland, Rendlesham Forest is owned and managed by Forestry England. There are plenty of trails here for walkers and cyclists, with picnic spots and sculptures to discover. Rendlesham Forest is famous for a supposed UFO sighting in December 1980. There's even a UFO trail, boasting a large model of an alien spacecraft.

Look out for the giant scallop on the shore. the metal sculpture caused a future when it was erected, but it's undeniably striking.

Scenic ride however not many options and a couple of dead ends worth including in your ride though. No real inclines just some gentle ups and downs.
