    Tips

    Cycling

    One of our group got a puncture so recommend tubeless if you want to go fast down it.
    CAUTION water drain bumps all the way down (prepare for liftoff).
    Some hidden potholes but very few and mostly towards edge. Otherwise fairly smooth.
    Note: if it’s your thing, the strava segment goes all the way down past the farm, all the way to the road. Cheeky...

    Also a good firm surface for a gravel bike to climb upto the Wessex Ridgeway from Sydling
