Remember the revised guidance permits you to exercise outdoors or visit an outdoor public place. Further info look at the COVID guidance the CSH website Don’t forget to post on the CSH Facebook group any pictures you take during your ride 😊. Beginners Ride North Cuckoo Trail 16 miles B Grade (Terrain) https://ridewithgps.com/routes/34717187 Click on the link above to view a simple ride of 16 miles that is a great beginner’s ride, safe share with care path that is a disused railway , so manageable gradients. Ideal for youngsters. This section goes north and uphill from Hailsham to Heathfield, downhill return makes this super fun. There are some road crossing that have pelican controls, a couple of minor ones that don’t. Always popular with walkers and horse riders. Go uphill for as long as you want, free parking in the Hailsham Car Park. No loo stops during COVID times, cafes and shops in Horam and Heathfield. Road Ride Horam 49 Miles C Grade (Terrain) https://www.strava.com/routes/17957505 Click on the link above to view a favourite ride of Mark Smoker who regularly leads the Road Sportive Group. This one goes out to Lewes and Ringmer and back through Hailsham so lots of possible stops for people who aren’t used to doing 50 miles. Horam and Hailsham are on the Cuckoo trail route above, so a great opportunity for a family ride meet up where there are different abilities. Being a Sportive route it will take in faster roads. Toilets in Lewes and Ringmer, Cafes and shops at Horam and Hailsham MTB Ride Peacehaven Loop 16 Miles B/C Grade (Terrain) https://ridewithgps.com/routes/34682870 This week’s MTB B/C (Terrain dependant on ground conditions) rid , is a favourite of Roger Lambert, it takes in Poverty Bottom to the masts , descend Itford Hill to Egrets Way, cross the C7 (Take Care). climb the track that will eventually take you into the Big Park, and NCN cycle route 2 / Valley Rd and Elphick Rd back to Newhaven Centre.
