About the route
Starting point
Beckenham Green BR3 5HZ (The Green diagonally opposite Beckenham Junction train station)
Definitely not suitable for road tyres since the route has sections of dirt tracks, bridleways, trails, gravel, etc. No hybrids. Mountain bikes only. This will be a social MTB ride to Godstone Vineyards. Approximately 30-ish miles there & back.
https://www.godstonevineyards.com/index.htm [Did a recce and risk-assessment ride today. Route is beautiful, but 80% off-road, with several very difficult sections. Steep ascents & descents over very harsh, uneven surfaces. Over 2,000 feet of climbing--off-road--so it'll be a challenging ride. Unless riders have singletrack-level experience and ride a mountain bike, this will be a risky and uncomfortable event. So I am updating this ride to mountain bikes only (No hybrids allowed.) Thank you.]
