Route: https://www.komoot.com/tour/584556465?ref=wtd
The ride is mostly on light gravel or country lanes, there was one section across a field that required lifting bikes over gates. There are some hard climbs but as most of the route is on old railway, it's flat for the area.
We did this in December so it was very quiet and drizzly. Imagine the old railway trails are rammed in the summer with walkers. Taproom is decent and if they don't have a food truck outside, you can order in takeaway.
