B4011 is a great road, at 6:30am! Any other time it's full of 40mph everywhere drivers. You get it clear and no end of fun! Be aware of speed camera vans at the end of the long straight just before the prison.
Next time you're over give me a shout and we can play in the cotswolds, some fantastic roads around there, we (Z4 forum) done a run around and it was fantastic (Mat provided the route). Probably why my tires need replacing after 8 months, and I don't drive for my commute!
edit: Used to live in Brill, so know it all well. Now in Oxford I find my fun in the Cotswolds, it's a few miles from my place. I got a fun route sorted I do every so often.

Welcome! I'm in Berkshire but am occasionally up in Bucks visiting the OH's folks up in Aylesbury. There are some rather nice roads around that way... the bits around Chequer's aren't half bad.

B1051 to Thaxted was amazing - best country road I've found in a while. Not a cyclist in sight either.

Interesting, as I stayed near Bishops Stortford this weekend, and went there and back from near Aylesbury the direct route through the countryside, some lovely roads, albeit a bit bumpy! Great fun.
