A northerner has to spend a week in this area back-end of June. I was wondering if theres any riding to be had. Bearing in mind that i'm working 9 to 5 each day. Checked local area on road atlas, not many colourful bits is there? As always, a bit of local knowledge can go a long way.

Not my patch of the woods but I do know there is a Country Park (Shorne Wood)? to the South of the town, next to the A2. Not sure if you can cycle there but might be worth checking with the local Council

www.gravesham.gov.uk

Otherwise I'd head for the North Downs if you get the chance (and get hold of an OS Map... a road atlas indeed)!

You could always have a look at www.streetmap.co.uk whack up the scale to 1:25,000 and have a look around. Grey maybe but as you head away from the Thames, not so flat.
