New forest beginner ride

This is a begginer/intermediate ride in the New Forest.  It is the first of two back to back rides I'll be doing on this date.  The ride take us thorugh Rhinefiled Drive which is a particularly stunning part of the New Forest.  Its three miles on tarmac road from the start car park to Blackwater carpark and then 3 miles on a gravel path loop through Rhinefield.  From there its another three miles back to the start carpark. 9 Miles in total. The ride has gentle hills and 3 miles of gravel paths that are well maintained however probably not suitable for very skinny tyres.  I have ridden this ride in very wet conditions and its still okay. If you only fancy a small ride, (just dragged the bike out ot the garage, haven't been on it for years, still recoving from New Years Eve etc..) then there is an option to just do the 3 mile off road gravel path section.  If you'd like to do this please call or text me on 07977066187 so I can give you the details. This ride will be pretty chilled, especially the off-raod part giving everyone the chance to take in the forest. Once this ride is finished there is an option to continue and do a 12 mile ride on tarmac ride to the Station House Cafe (for brunch) and back but I will be posting that separately. Just a note if you need directions from Brockenhurst station please let me know.
