Discover the hidden corners of southern England, London and the south-east, travelling by bicycle along its ancient network of quiet lanes. From gentle spins to weekend camping adventures, wild seashores to enchanted woodlands and midnight escapades, LOST LANES will enthrall armchair explorers and inspire dedicated cyclists and families.
Lost Lanes: 36 Glorious Bike Rides in Southern England presents an imaginative selection of interesting bike routes in southern England including the Home Counties. 30 tours are grouped geographically, with a special “best for” section providing a selection of best rides for families, wild camping, pubs, gourmets, history, etc. Six of the routes are the well-known organized rides, including the annual London to Brighton charity event.

Each tour has an interesting description mixing instructions with plenty of information on landscape, sights, history, etc. The accompanying map is just a basic sketch of roads linking the main locations, but the description includes the web address for downloading more route information. Also provided are recommendations for “pubs and pit stops” and each ride is illustrated with interesting colour photos.

The introductory section includes a table listing all the rides with length, ascent and grade; the appendix has more practical information.
