Saddle up and take on the iconic 54-mile cycle from London to Brighton in June!

About

Starting in London and heading south, once out of London you will predominantly cycle along quiet lanes passing through Mitcham, Carshalton, Chipstead, Banstead and Haywards Heath before taking on the challenge that is Ditchling Beacon – a mile-long climb to the top of the South Downs where you will be rewarded with amazing views and a water break!

From there it's downhill for the last few miles on to the famous Brighton seafront where a celebration awaits!
