Leaving Lower Rexton Farm we're going to head out past Wortham Manor and the tiny little windmill they've put up there, drop into Lifton and Tinhay and then spin up Custard Hill (Ambrosia) to Chillaton. Left turn Clyde and then right turn up another pokey hill which I'm sure will get Christened on route with all manner of indelicate names. This place is occasionally called Liddaton Down by cyclists. We then head towards North Brentor with flashes of Dartmoor through the trees. And then we have a lovely spin along a ridge towards Lydford. Sharp turn downhill towards the Old A30 and home again - either via Lifton or Lewdown and the Turkey farm depending on our legs. This is a tough route with grown up hills. You need to be cycling at least twice a week and managing a minimum of 11.5 mph average over rolling hills.
