Description:
Day two sees us on more familar roads, with a reverse ascent/descent of Bolderwood before the scenic ride through Rhinefield ornamental drive. We then head south before loooping back north for the cafe stop at Bealieu (28 miles) before returning to Lyndhurst.
39 miles and 500m of climbing, again through a range of heathland, forest and villages.

Weather:
sunny
Report:
It was warm and sunny from the start today and it was fun to do the reverse Bolderwood climb, especially as the descent was mostly traffic free. Rhinefield ornamental drive was as beautiful as ever, and we then had a good variety of scenery throughout the ride. The roads were busier than the day before - not sure if it was because it was sunnier or more touristy than the northern part of the forest. The cafe stop at Beaulieu was much appreciated before we all returned to Lyndhurst.
Thanks again to Ed for being second ride leader and to everyone for being such a great group to cycle with. I'm already looking forward to next year's ride.
