Colin Wharton heads to Woolhampton for a lovely cycle ride exploring Bucklebury Common

This is a lovely cycle ride exploring a route from Woolhampton to Bucklebury Common across a variety of landscapes and, although short, there are a number of gradients.
Woolhampton, a village in West Berkshire, is known for its many coaching inns due to its location on the Bath Road.
On this cycle ride you’ll get to explore Bucklebury Common, which is managed by the Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust and is one of the largest commons in Southern England with a network of public footpaths and byways. The common is also a site of Special Scientific Interest.
