Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Chalk Downland Descent

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful sweeping descent through open chalk downland. It keeps going and stays good beyond the section marked, but watch the road surface once you get into the trees, and the tight right-hander when you get to it.
