This classic loop of the Isle of Wight is one for every cyclist’s bucket list.

The joy lies in the roads and scenery: white cliffs, endless beaches, expansive sea views, classic English countryside and pretty villages, all via a network of small, well-surfaced roads with little traffic.

It’s also superbly well signposted. White signs with a blue island shape take you clockwise around the island.

This route is the undisputed jewel in the crown for road cyclists on the Isle of Wight.
