Pixie's Café

Highlight • Cafe

Nice coffee and flapjack. Lots of roadies, I was the only MTB!

Tip by

5.54 km

Woodland Dirt Track

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

Swooping descents and gentle climbs make this similar to riding a roller coaster!

Tip by

10.5 km

Ford Crossing

Highlight • Rest Area

Be careful, the tarmac under the water is very slippery!

Squitmoor Woodland Tree Tunnel

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Not so beautiful after it's been raining, even in spring time. Seems to be drier the further west you go.

Back Lane (Stane Street)

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Fine on a road bike in dry weather, would want wider, grippier tyres in wetter weather as I expect it gets muddy.

Tip by

27.2 km

Nice descent towards Cromer with a swinging right / left double corner which you can take flat out with the right line (but stay on your own side of the road in case of oncoming traffic around the bend).
