Itinerary description

Chipennham-Goring on Thames

First Day of this cycling trip across this traditional English trail.
http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/ridgeway

This quite satisfactory MTB ride which led us to Goring was mostly following off road paths with stunning views.

Expect some pretty muddy areas after Avebury , so my recommendation will be to cycle in summer or beginning of autumn as we did.

Note that around 10km before reaching Goring, our final destination, we got a small diversion for a pub lunch.

I have classed this day as difficult due to its length as you will have to ride 95 km of off-road lanes in one single day. Apart from that, the paths are not technical.
