And picking up Linford's suggestion, there are trains from Gatwick to Reading, but will require a cycle reservation when buying ticketlinfordlunchbox said:If you can get yourself to Reading from Stansted, get on to the Kennet and Avon Canal and follow it through to Bath (Bristol) (140km from Reading). Mostly road free on the canal path which was restored over the last 30 years cutting through many nice towns, and beautiful countryside.

Tony said:If you are going to try the delights of East Anglia.....what I did a couple of years ago (in February...):
I live almost in Gatwick Airport. Train from airport to London Bridge. Ride North to Liverpool St station. Train to Ipswich. From Ipswich, through Woodbridge to Dunwich. Over little bridge to Southwold (Adnams Brewery), then Lowestoft, Gt Yarmouth, round coast through Caister and inland past Hinckling, through Broads to Stalham, up to Cromer and back down to Norwich. Train back to Liverpool St, ride to London Bridge, train to Gatwick.
