00:01 As much as a third of the entire length

00:04 of Britain's road network is made up of rural lanes,

00:07 Neolithic trackways, Roman roads,

00:10 and medieval pilgrim trails,

00:12 which all tell the story of the land itself.

00:15 (upbeat music)

00:18 Now I love the buzz of crit racing.

00:23 - Bit of a legend in fixed gear racing is Alec Briggs.

00:26 - And speeding through the city.

00:28 - Yeah man, dragging it past buses.

00:31 - And I never slow down.

00:33 - It's always race, race, race, train, train, train.

00:36 - But I'm told Jack Fursten is a man who can teach me how.

00:40 - There's the tree that deserves a hug.

00:42 - He's agreed to take me back in time.

00:47 - Just to think of all the feet and hooves

00:50 that must've come this way.

00:51 - To convince me that slow and steady.

00:54 - It's not slow cycling, is it?

00:55 - Always wins the race of life.

00:57 - What are we doing here, Jack?

00:58 - It's too deep.

00:59 - We're here too deep, you can do that,

01:00 that's not even a foot.

01:01 - Like, is that working?

01:03 - What's going on here?

01:04 - I mean, we could just go caught.

01:06 - It's not that far, is it?

01:07 - Throw your weight back.

01:10 (laughing)

01:14 - We're heading southeast, out of London,

01:17 through Kent, and all the way to Canterbury.

01:20 - Look at that, that is impressive.

01:24 - It's huge, isn't it?

01:25 - Breathing in the fresh air.

01:27 - This is what I live for.

01:28 This is what I live for.

01:29 - Riding the trails.

01:31 - This could be part of a much longer journey for me.

01:34 - And soaking up the history.

01:37 - We just like hit an off-road bit.

01:38 It's a lot of the pilgrims way off-road.

01:40 - You ready to wash away all your sins

01:45 and become a pilgrim by full body immersion

01:50 in this beautiful Chalk Stream River?

01:53 - I think I might like my sins.
