Totally correct. Wiltshire was a nightmare for me last year.
I bent my right bar on the 690 back so far I couldn’t stand up on the pegs properly....100m into the first lane on a deep narrow chalky rut..
Hated the Ridgeway multi ruts with a passion.
Rode back to Salisbury on the road via Avebury and a nice pub stop in Marlborough.
Got home and bought a nice light Husky.
In Sussex the lanes are mostly overgrown with trees so I can’t stand up anyway.
