Wessex Way

The Wessex Way captures the essence that is off-roading in England’™s green and pleasant southern counties. A landscape of remote download that never fails to impart a rich sense of freedom. It is a ride of epic statistics – the longest off-road, coast-to-coast ride in England, comprising a week`s trail-blazing that traverses the breadth of the ancient kingdom to which it is dedicated. Yet it is far from being tough.Although one of the longer routes it’™s also one of the easiest. No need for you to be a free-ride whiz-kid, pulling wheelies on a whim, bunny-hopping boulders with the greatest of ease and taking air like a Red Arrow pilot on a practice sortie. 250 miles at a steady 700’™ across southern England, over sumptuous, undulating landscapes make this ride a uniquely scenic experience. In the summer, in the dry, a fit rider could blitz the Wessex Way in four or five days, but in a wet winter the same rider may take a full week. This Guide contains 10 pages of mapping; route cards with detailed route instructions; information of where to stay, bike shops and rail access; technical tips from experienced off-road tourers; and is ridden and researched with local mountain bikers.
