Southwater, Crabtree, Shermanbury, Knepp Loop
A 39km mix of road and bridleways; winding through the West Sussex countryside. In the wetter months the bridleways can become bogged down, so this route is recommended in the dry seasons. There are plenty of places to stop for refreshments and scenery throughout the route.

All the routes listed are taken directly from the actual ride recordings [track logs]. Unfortunately, there may be subtle inaccuracies due to the accuracy of the GPS at the time of recording. Every effort is made to ensure these are as accurate as possible, but riders and route followers need to be aware of these potential issues.
