I'm based in Hemel Hempstead and mainly ride Ashridge way and occasionally around Princes Risborough (not explored too much though). So i was wondering where in the chilterns you like riding the most? Am i missing out on some lovely singletrack?

Cheers

Get a map and explore along the ridge from Princes Risborough to Downley / High Wycombe. Loads around there - find the Pink and Lily pub and the Le De Spencer Arms pub and generally explore between them!

I've recently moved to Tring and have found some really nice singletrac between there and the Ashridge estate. Still in the process of exploring though, it would be good to see people's route maps / GPS data if they have it.

Loads to explore between Wallingford, Caversham, Henley & Stokenchurch - buy OS Explorer map 171 & a hilighter pen - be a while before you see all the bridleways & start infilling with cheeky ๐Ÿ™‚

Yes.

There is basically singletrack from Dunstable Downs to the Thames, it just takes finding.

A route; come up the canal from HH and take a left at Cow Roast, follow through to Wendover Woods and then onto Combe Hill. Take the BW to Great Missenden via Dunsmore and then back across to HH via Chesham.

look at the trail guides on bucksmtb.co.uk. The wendover route is a particularly good one, especially the descent through bacombe hill into wendover.
