Just some classic beautiful riding through the northern ends of the Chiltern Hills near Nettledon. You can pop into nearby Hemel Hempstead for a whole range of great restaurants, pubs and cafs to refuel.

Bison Hill

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

It's names Bison Hill because of the Bison that live in the neighbouring field. Look out for them on the way up, but not on the way down - keep your eyes on the road, as it can get hairy if you don't quiet read the bend when a car is coming the other way.

There are some very pretty houses opposite the church.

Aldbury Village Pond

Highlight • Settlement

This small 'chocolate box' village is not quite as understated as it seems. Due to its closeness in proximity to Elstree Studio, it has been featured in quite the array of televisions and films.

Whilst it's probably best known internationally for its appearances in The Dirty Dozen and Bridget Jone's Diary, it's also featured in British gems such as Midsomer Murders, Inspector Morse and The Avengers.
