The King Alfred's Way bikepacking route [1] includes part of the Ridgway. I planned to do this last summer, but didn't get chance, and I'm not really fit at the moment enough having barely cycled since last summer, but maybe I'll get around to doing this next year. It does look like a great route though.
I bike packed this route with a good friend 2 years ago and had an absolutely amazing time. Neither of us were super fit but we managed it comfortably in 4 days (although our route planning left a little to be desired - 90 miles in one day along the Ridgeway was a mistake).
The Ridgeway itself was arguably the most challenging part of King Alfred's way - a couple of large climbs, plus large sections of very rocky terrain made it tough going at points.
Overall though, a beautiful route and I would highly recommend it!
It is a great route but I wish I’d had larger tyres. I used 33C cyclocross tyres and it does get a bit slippery up those chalk hills when it rains.
I loved it and would recommend it to anyone.
