Looking for a bit of a change from our usual route around the chilterns. I'm sure I recall a few of you talking about some good riding in the Stonor / Maidensgrove area.
Can someone please remind me where those routes are?

Stonor is about halfway round a couple of routes we do from watlington. Would a .gpx file help, or if not I could send a screen shot of the route to your email.

r6ymy - a gpx file would be great - email in profile.
Thank you
nickc - yep, have a well thumbed copy of that in front of me at the moment.

greasystain, .gpx files sent, if they haven't turned up then my email is in my profile. Just noticed you're looking for a Mountain King tyre, I have a half worn 2.2 protection in the garage.

Thanks r6ymy!
Cheers for the tyre offer but I managed to get hold of a a pair of UST ones since that post.

What's that descent from Maidnesgrove Scrubs like?

Which one?

The one that ends up on the B480. Looks like it goes between two woods then across a field?

If you mean Warmscombe Lane then it's pretty good.

r6ymy could I have a screen shot of the route sent to my email please?

Hey guys did the Almshill Wood descent this morning. Steep and fast - great.
Many thanks!

Glad you enjoyed it - just remembered to warn you about the road at the bottom, but looks like you had that covered

Now worries we saw the road coming. I was doing a good impression of a badger at the end of the run though - tubeless tyres sprung a leak.
I'm just trying to build that run into our regular route and was wondering if you had idea if the highlighted track below is ridable? It's the one going through Balham's Wood.

Cheers

Double track couple of turns, not that interesting. It's a private road, if that bothers you. Single bar gate that's padlocked at the bottom on the road

Private road... maybe not then.

Gus, .gpx files should be in your email.

i did this route several weeks ago and can fire off the gpx file if you wish. Plenty of climbing for around here at 5000ft
edit - just realised you cant read the route. It starts at Russell Water - Stoner - Hambledon - Ibstone - Lewknor - Ibstone Common - Truville Heath - Stonor - Russel Water

Looks fairly similar to a regular route I do. Any chance of a GPX for me too please?
