Personally it was an outstanding ride. A superb mix of quiet but good surfaced roads, with some A roads blended in, but never scary, always sensible traffic.
Roads that even I have never ridden, though I often crossed ones I had at junctions.
Lumpy in a way that I like - short sharp hard steep out-of-the-saddle go-for-it efforts. I remember the climb photoed above, indeed I nearly stopped just to take that same photo... Of course that one was a different longer sort of climb!
Talking of climbs, I also experienced a couple that didn't suit me, coming back across the New Forest - I'm talking nearly five kilometre at 2.5% up, into a headwind unstinted by trees or buildings... It looked like it was flat, but oh no it wasn't.... I just don't have the power to do that at close to 25 kph - well I did on Sunday, but I was more knackered than climbing from Wylye!!!
I also remember quite a few enormously fast descents, again on good surfaces, with good sight lines..
Folks put this one on your 'to do' list
