Well, the foothills, at any rate. Finally made it across the chain ferry to Studland and then on to Swanage. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting, probably because there was friendly north westerly, which is precisely what I am hoping for in September. Quite a number of people out on bikes. Not too many motorists. I think it proves that cyclists get up earlier than motorists. Then back across the ferry, and round to the other end of the bay to Hengistbury Head. 46 miles altogether, although there is a dodgy contact on the Cateye mileage devise, so may have been a mile more.
I think I am beginning to really think the final trip is going to be OK! Next challenge is Corfe Castle. I know that one is longer and steeper, so needs some mental preparation as well as physical.
