This 14 mile circular foray into the less-wild parts of the pretty New Forest is the perfect way to explore rural Southampton by bike. Add to this, the excitement of passing the Otter and Owl Wildlife Centre and a stop off at Eling Creek, with its 900 year old tradition of producing flour, and you've got yourself a perfect Sunday trip out!
