A beautiful ride through the New Forest, helping to raise vital funds for Orchid Cancer Care.
There's a choice of three routes, all starting and finishing in Brockenhurst. Quiet roads and gentle hills make the shorter rides ideal for families.
Short Route - 18 miles - following forest tracks so nearly all traffic-free. NOT suitable for racing bikes.
Medium route - 28 miles - a gentle route through the woods to Boldrewood and Lyndhurst, then across open heathland to Beaulieu.(all this route is on-road)
Long route - 48 miles - through open heathland, woodland and rhododendrons to Linwood and the attractive Avon Valley before turning back through Bolderwood to Beaulieu on the return route. (all this route is on-road)
PLEASE NOTE. The short route is predominantly on forest tracks consisting of a compacted gravel surface. WE THEREFORE RECOMMEND TYRES THAT ARE 1.5" WIDE OR MORE - you can find out if yours are by checking the sidewall of your tyre. By using a larger tyre you reduce the risk of punctures and increase the comfort of your ride.
Please note that all ride details are subject to confirmation.
