"Cycle path", Botley Hill Running beside Croydon Road, it does not look well used and probably with good reason. A poor surface, narrow and a lair of the puncture fairy. Most folk probably stick to the road.  
A good place to be on a bike, this is near the highest point on the North Downs and every road runs downhill from here.
