Hi Folks,

In mid-June I have to be over in Steyning for a training course, and will take a bike with me. Never ridden anywhere down that way, I see the SDW is close, and a google suggests there are a few trails around.

Would anyone have any guidance on 10-20mile loops in that area? Would be great if someone can provide some direction (even a GPX or 2?).

I'll have limited time early morning or early evening for rides, hence the distance and request for route guidance. I ain't got oodles of time to explore. Sunday afternoon 16th June might have more time.

Also happy to meet up if you don't mind dragging a fat knacker around.

Ta muchly!

Not sure if this will work and not the most exciting ride apart from the Lion Trail which is fun

It was on my ebike (just because it is new but would be OK on a non e-bike, just one nasty hill!

Also in Worthing and also on an ebike now although I do still have an analogue bike.  Be warned - DrP and his gang will tear your bloody legs off if not reasonably fit!

Away in Wales that weekend but might be around either side during the week

It is and they will, do listen.

On the plus side you'll get a good route with some interesting bits thrown in.
