War Memorial on former airfield worth a few minutes stop.

This is a long, straight off-road path with changing surfaces (gravel, singletrack) between Ashwell and Melbourn, which is part of the Icknield Way. It is not particularly scenic, but you can get that continuing westward toward Letchworth.

Loved this section. Chalky dry and fast!

Apparently the only complete windmill in Hertfordshire

Scenic road through scenic countryside. Road is quite narrow and just east of East End the surface has collapsed leaving the road flooded by the adjacent stream and strewn with loose stones, so go easy into the blind corners.

Great straight route, quite bumpy, alot divets. Ideal if you suspension to soak up the bumbs

Great stretch. Small quiet lanes. From Maggots it's a long climb to start. Beware large and very (too) fast farm vehicles.

Ensure you stop off at the Woodman Pub, which is almost adjacent to the old 8th airforce airfield at Nuthampstead. The Woodman pub is an excellent stop and littered with history pertaining to the American aircrews who flew from there during WW2. At the back of the pub is the airfield museum which is definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful fan tailed Windmill, in a stunning location.

A wonderful memorial to the RAF Scouting and Bombing Squadrons, please take the time to take in the area and its history.

Fantastic tribute to all those who served at RAF Steeple Morden. Take the time to pause and reflect and remember those who sacrificed so much.

Follow the track from Ermine Street and turn left immediately before the railway bridge. The first part of the track is quite rough and can be muddy, so care needed, but it soon levels out for a great ride to Ashwell.

Nice descent towards Cromer with a swinging right / left double corner which you can take flat out with the right line (but stay on your own side of the road in case of oncoming traffic around the bend).

Another magnificent example of an old Post Mill, complete with sails

A memorial to the Scouting and Bombing Squadrons stationed at the airfield, with several buildings and taxiways visible. A plinth with an airfield layout explains it all better than I can..!

A traffic free connection between Melbourn and Ashwell.

Impressive memorial but not a lot left of the airfield to see.

Great bends and changes in gradient but beware of concealed driveways and, if going north, a straight descent ending at a T junction means you need to be ready with the brakes.

Absolutely gorgeous bit of road, as is the whole road from Great Hormead and the Pelhams through Anstey, some of my absolute favourite roads within reach of London and huge fun when heading north towards Cambridge - it's then a false flat downhill and you can really put your head down and have fun. Just keen enough in the legs for the drag up to great Chishill that comes right after though!

If heading northbound, you can really turn the afterburners on and take this as fast as you like. Obviously use caution looking out for oncoming cars and innocent bystanders.
