Planning to do the MBR Killer Loop in Cranborne Chase – I can see a very long climb on a byway from Tollard Royal toward the top – What about the path along Ashcombe Bottom itself? Could it be more interesting?

thanks,

Gilles

Is this the one from quite a few years back? It’s crap.

better go somewhere else – thanks

Go to the Dorset rough riders Facebook page or website and ask on there. They occasionally go over that area and know the trails better.

Me, I live 10 miles away and it is all easily got to from my doorstep, but I hardly ever go that way as I find it quite dull or massively overgrown in places, and the BOATs are heavily used by Motorbikes and 4x4s.

On a road bike though, the roads rounds there are ace!

Sorry was a bit short in the previous post. It’s not a great loop. There’s no single track and I wouldn’t call the climbs killer. And you can’t park at the airfield anymore.

Where are based / starting from? Purbeck would be my 1st recommendation. There’s some nice rides in the Bulbarrow direction.

And yes DRR can probably suggest some routes…

No worries! I make my mind and I’m planning now Purbeck.
