Living about a mile away from where your video ended I have to say maybe not "The Best" cycling route in Essex but certainly some nice roads that I have ridden hundreds of times. Toot Hill is a decent local climb but you should head for High Beach if you want more of a challenge. Several nice climbs around that area within a short radius of each other.
It looked a lovely day and a nice ride. It makes a change from all the people practicing for the Ride-London (Essex). There have literally been dozens an hour going past my house. Essex often gets a bad wrap, but it has some good riding if you avoid the main roads. The country roads in the very north of the county are very scenic and generally very quiet. 👍
