Itinerary description
Awesome MTB Trail at the NW Chilterns. Fairly long XC trail, with plenty of gravel, off road (muddy on wet days) and rooty trails. Good combination of ups and downs with very little road cycling to give your legs a proper workout.
***Just be very careful at downhill section starting at km 22.50 due to VERY loose gravel, steep downhill section and a couple of sharp turns. If going too fast it's the perfect combination for an unforgettable crash... (yes, I speak from experience!)***
Apart from that, be careful of trails crossing roads without clear signage there's a few where you could be going fast and the road just appears in front without noticing... Roads are not very busy with traffic but worth mentioning.
Final uphills are tremendous. Make sure you tackle them with rested thigh ;)
Trail is supposed to end at the starting point but phone ran out of juice... Very nice downhill section between end of trail back to Wendover and also easy to find if you've got a bit of orientation.
Enjoy!
