It's a very quiet and scenic route.

Almost dry at the moment but watch out in the winter. I once saw a van stuck in the middle of the ford!

Hanningfield Reservoir is celebrated for its significant wildfowl populations and serves as a sanctuary for nature and wildlife. It’s an ideal destination for a day out, offering a range of attractions including the Café on the Water, a gift shop, a play park, fishing opportunities with an on-site tackle shop, picnic areas, and scenic woodland walks. Visitors can also explore the Essex Wildlife Trust Visitor Centre and nearby nature reserve. With convenient road access and free parking, Hanningfield provides something for everyone to enjoy.

Cycle lane and lots of shops. Watch out for pedestrians though!

Nice quiet country lane.

You can enjoy lovely views of Hanningfield Reservoir from this road on the south side. The reservoir is framed by beautiful woodlands and meadows, making it a favourite spot for walkers in the Essex area.

The seafront in Southend is a wonderful place for a ride. The road is flat and has a designated lane for cyclists, and the views out to the water are superb. There are plenty of places to stop for refreshments along the way.

unsaddle and enjoy a little walk around this beautifully kept secret

Blackmore village is a place to visit they have a great Tea room Homemade cakes made on the premises just across the road there is a little church rumour have it Henry the eighth went there

Proper tea (loose) with our big breakfast.

Beware after heavy rain. Obviously!!

Rode through this with road bike, no issues on an October ride.

Fantastic cafe stop in the pretty village of Blackmore. They've got a great menu and loads of outside space, a real favourite of local and London cyclists.

The stream known as the River Wid crosses the road here. There is a handy water depth gauge post/board so you know not to ride through it if it’s too deep, or ride through it at your peril. There’s a slippery bridge to the side to help you over.

Southend Pier is the city’s most treasured, historical icon as well as being the longest pleasure pier in the world. It stretches for 1.33 miles out into the Thames Estuary, putting Southend on the map as well as into the record books.

Massive slices of cake

Any pub that has a Blackadder-themed sign automatically gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. The Prince Regent is on the sign, so maybe the landlord is a Mr E. Blackadder Esq., Mr S. Baldrick is the cellar boy and the cook is Mrs Miggins (just don't order the Scarlet Pimpernel Sauce).

Take a coffee there

Three quarter gentle incline to the most haunted church in England!
