August 21, 2026, Ridgeway Track to Streatley

This was a really lovely ride, well put together and uses the areas bridleways and byeways to best advantage. We rode it in August during a drought, so very dry conditions but beautiful area to explore.

Rivers and canals crisscross the country, as they were – especially in the early days of industrialisation – a very essential part of the transport infrastructure. After all, the factories needed the delivery of raw materials in previously unknown quantities, and the finished goods then had to find their way to the traders. Many of the canals originate from this era. Later, the railways and, later still, trucks took over the task of transporting goods. However, when building the artificial waterways and making the rivers navigable, it had to be taken into account that differences in altitude always had to be overcome, and so locks are often lined up along the canals and rivers – at more or less large intervals, depending on the local situation. Shipping could only be made possible with their help.

Great views down the valley and Uffington white horse (white horse hill). Too wet to take proper photos alas. You will have a better experience on a clear day, I hope.

Scutchamer Knob is an ancient Iron Age burial mound and historic landmark on the Ridgeway. Along my King Alfred’s Way bikepacking route, it was a memorable spot to pause before the final stretch to Reading. 📜 Once a Saxon meeting place, this hilltop offers panoramic views of the surrounding Berkshire downs—a perfect blend of history and landscape. 🚴‍♂️ A short climb rewards you with quiet reflection and wide-open skies.

A perfect pause near the end of my King Alfred’s Way ride to Reading, this spot offers sweeping Berkshire views and a peek into England’s deep past. The Ridgeway here follows ancient trade routes, with nearby Iron Age earthworks and medieval terraces. Local legends whisper of ghostly travelers and strange lights in nearby woods — adding a bit of mystery to the stunning scenery. 🚴‍♂️ Easy access for cyclists. Take a moment to soak in the views and the stories before your final miles.
