as a non local regular (visit guildford work often) i have ridden winterfold, pitch, leith hill etc quite a lot over the last 12 months, but im hearing now that the White Down area is the place to be!?

can anyone share a strava loop or gpx to guide me round the best bits??

It will be pants and death on a stick this time of year the white of it is chalk

And its like fight club, the first rule etc… Shhhh

10 years ago I busted my ribs the first time I hit those trails. Still can’t clean them all, even in the dry let alone the wet.

Bloody horrible from now until about May. Don’t bother.

Oh dear 🙁

Please avoid publically shifting the focus just because the main playground is being spoilt by a rightfully annoyed landowner. The owners and managers of the stuff over where you’re thinking are going to get far more annoyed if hordes start turning up and worse start digging. The latter has already resulted in a number of warnings about police involvement. It’s a precious area to the likes of Nat Trust and others plus an army of walkers. Riding natural trails with natural features can be tolerated by some, but not the industrial scale of riding and digging of Peaslake.

At the very least, don’t post routes publically.

That said, it is nice there 😉 , but yes in the wet it’s nasty.
