Thanks - looks good, going to plan my route tonight & will probably use most of yours!!
Most of it was good, apart from the bit from Kingston to Guildford, which I mapped in a bit of a hurry and choose roads which were both busy and dull.
Well, I rode from Ealing to Lymington last weekend - then on to the Isle of Wight. Here's my route:

(it doesn't start from my house!)
Most of it was good, apart from the bit from Kingston to Guildford, which I mapped in a bit of a hurry and choose roads which were both busy and dull. Most of it from Guildford on was a joy. You could do other variations getting in to the New Forest: I did a bit of a loop as my companion had not been there before.
The A30 is mostly ok to cycle on if you are a confident cyclist and in a hurry but not what I would call fun. There are better alternatives.
The Three Down audax gives two other proven routes to the New Forest. They start from Chalfont but worth looking at for alternatives:
