RIDE OVERVIEW

Quiet lanes, mixed terrain, sections of the South Downs way & a few tasty climbs makes this a classic off road sportive this Autumn. The beautiful South Downs are best seen on two wheels and away from the crowds.

  • DISTANCE: 73KM | ELEVATION: 1513M
  • RIDE DIFFICULTY 3.5/5
  • TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY 3/5
  • PERCENTAGE OF ROUTE OFF ROAD 80%

Bike & Tyre Choice: The route has a real mix of terrain but ideal throughout for gravel bikes with around 40mm tyres. Mountain bikes will be fine on parts of the route but will feel slow on the quicker sections.
