when you ride from home, is there a direction that you avoid?

cos it is hilly/boring/to busy. or any other reason.

South, because its the Solent….

I always head onto the main road as the other way leads to “the Heights” where cars park badly on narrow roads, people drive aggresivley and the kids are scary.

The hills are thataway > so I ride that way.
The hills are also thataway ^ but its not such a nice ride
There are no hills thataway < so I dont ride there.

East because I’d end up in Essex.

I avoid the direction my ex lives in.

I generally avoid the A680/A58 because if I wanted to do a long tarmac section, I’d go out on my road bike.

ride in all directions, but only mtb towards the east as that is where the hills are.

North because I would end up in the firth of forth

I avoid the normal road way round through the sand dunes if I don’t fancy it. but sometimes I do fancy it cos It is more fun. It’s not far anyway. Totally churned up with sand at the mo and have to push it

🙂

Ditto, but north.

MTL north PB south Tod east rochdale west.. guess which way i never go..

>, because there lies the city. <,v and ^ all head countyside wards, although its rare I go v way.

Living at the top of a hill the only way is down to begin with from there it’s whatever takes mi fancy

i try and stay off the roads if possible.am lucky that the kennet & avon canal is right on my doorstep (if i want to cycle to trowbridge,bath). also if i want to cycle on the ridgeway (avebury/marlbrough downs) i can cycle nearly all the way without having to join the main roads 🙂

never go east unless some one else leads. don’t know many routes that way; don’t know why.

might sort that out….

just get out on bike and ride it best you can enjoy!

I must be lucky. Great riding in every direction! 🙂

Its possible to do 40+ miles round here only crossing about 2 roads twice, with no other Tarmac at all. 🙂

And that’s just in one direction……

Hills in <,>,/\ and \/ direction, I LOVE it here.

No, always ride from home and love exploring 😀

On the road I rarely go south, on the mtb I rarely go west.

I have no idea why, other than the routes I know and the places I like to ride.

I live at the bottom of a cul de sac so there is only one way out 🙂
