| This is a quiet route to get to BRE from Garston station, which is the closest train station to BRE.
This route is on minor roads and cycle paths.
There is a direct train to Garston from Watford Junction and St Albans Abbey Station (note this station is not the same as the St Albans (City) Station on the main line to London and Bedford). If you are considering travelling via Garston Station ensure that you check train times carefully as the service is only every 45 minutes in each direction. Cycles can be carried on all services on this route.
See Cue Sheet (click Show / Cue Sheet) for written pointers to take with you on the cycle ride. |

| SkyRideLocal - Ride Well. This mainly road route is suitable for all bike types. For a Ride Well we are aiming for a pace of 9-10 mph. This is a scenic route that offers some challenge at times with several short, and a couple of steep, hill sections. Riders will therefore need 3-5+ selectable gears. Such rides are judged suitable only for ages from 11 upwards (11-15 with, and supervised by, adults). The estimated ride length is 2.5hrs including stop(s). This route avoids the off road section of Shire Lane and the steps down from the Ebury Way on the original route adding another 2 miles making 22. |

The ride starts out from Chipperfield Common and heads for Bovingdon Green, Belsize and Sarratt before approaching the edge of Croxley Green and then Whippendell Wood before returning to Chipperfield Common. |

| A Ride Well (9-10mph pace). This is a great ride with some tough challenging hills (@ 4 and 13 miles) taking in parts of the National Cycle Network and Rickmansworth aquadrome (The Cafe stop at 12.5 miles). The start point is The Lido, formerly a canal reservoir and the film location for Cliff Richard's famous 60's movie 'Summer Holiday' (which was set in Greece!) Whilst the majority of the route is on tarmac roads, four miles are on shale paths. |

| Amersham - Winchmore Hill - Coleshill - Chalfont St Giles - Rickmansworth. Most of this is on footpaths through fields with many stiles to climb over., so lots of upper body strength required! |
