Cycling on the Isle of Wight - Route 7 - Ryde
Route 7 Ryde Map - Although labelled Ryde this route takes you out of Ryde into the countryside that lies behind borrowing sections of the Sandown cycleway to take you through Havenstreet (you could always veer off course to the IW Steam Railway in Havenstreet) through the smaller villages of Langbridge, Newchurch, Alverstone and Adgestone and then onto the lovely village of Brading where you could stop off at the Brading Experience before going back through the sleepy village of Upton back to Ryde. This is a 15 Mile (25km) ride which is quite hilly.
