Ivinghoe Beacon is at the start of the Icknield Way and you get a nice view of it from here

Scenic and flat byway with relatively good surface. Should stay quite dry during the winter. Also good for gravel and mountain bikes.

One could easily mistake this object, which stands in the middle of the lawn and is called the "Windcatcher", for a sculpture by an artist in a modern style. However, it is not primarily an art object, but rather a functional building. The functional building is part of a ventilation system.

This church is a Grade I listed building. The present look of it dates back to 1774 when it was built of flint rubble and local Totternhoe stone at the cost of £29 7s (this sum meant something quite different back then!). I find the church looking quite unusual - the stone makes it look quite massive and imposing. A great place to stop. There is a bench in the churchyard if you need a proper break.

Beer garden with a nice scenic view and room for your bike. Great for relaxing with a shandy half way through your ride!
