Ancient Chiltern Woods – mountain biking singletrack

My idea was to plan new hiking routes through some ancient Chiltern woods but at the same time do it on a mountain bike. From fast flowing singletrack, brutal ascents, pub stop and getting lost, it was indeed a day to be cherished. I believe finding the new hiking routes may have paid off. Now, I just have to walk the various routes!
