チックニーのおすすめランニングルート

Henham is a pretty little village in rural Essex, although the proximity to Stansted Airport means that the ski tends to be busier than the streets. The Cock Inn is a good pub, worth a stop, the village shop is great for picking up supplies and the Church of St Mary's has been here since 1044 (although it's not the same building).

Sept 2024. Dry but serious ruts and deep pot holes some 5ft across and 2 ft deep. In places there is only 1 narrow route along the ridge between pot holes and deep ruts. Some nice climbs as well so this is a challenging ride but satisfying if you can do it - it is not a fast run. Suitable for experienced track riders do not attempt on road tyres. Also if its been raining it will be very wet with deep puddles as the pot holes fill with water. The ridge route will become too slippery to navigate and a serious pile up and bike damage could result. However, there are other stretches which will be ridable even after rain so if you use caution and walk round the treacherous parts you should be OK. 1st time I rode this stretch in early winter starting at the North end, the pot holes were full of water and after slipping and sliding around a bit even when walking I turned round and went back to the other track to the North Green Croft Lane which is rideable all year.

August 2024 - dry as a bone

Good climb up single track road west to east.

Nice pub with seats in front and large garden to side. Well worth a rest after the hill up to it.

Good gravel track well graded and car wide plus. Travelled Oct 23 and in good condition only a few puddles. Long section

On the way on Bishop's Stortford, this was kind of an unexpected tough hill. Highly recommended.

Best traversed westbound for the downhill. Eastbound it's one of those gradual climbs that never relents, made even more difficult by the wind howling across the fields.
