The UKCE Kent Classic

Sat 24th October 2026

Three cyclists, two adults and a child, smile and hold up bottles of non-alcoholic beer while sitting outdoors on a sunny day. They are wearing cycling gear and sitting next to bicycles and outdoor seating, with trees and buildings in the background. A man and a woman are cycling on a winding road with lush green trees and shrubs on either side. Both are wearing helmets and cycling gear; the woman’s gear is pink and black. The road and the surrounding landscape are brightly lit by the sun. Two women stand side by side, smiling and holding medals in an outdoor setting. Both have hair tied in buns and are dressed in athletic wear. A racetrack and field are visible in the background, with bright, natural light illuminating the scene.

Organiser's Description

The Kent Classic cycling event - our final event of 2026 - starts and finishes at Lingfield Park Racecourse. The routes initially take you down and along the county border of East Sussex and Kent, before navigating around Hever Castle.

All three routes showcase the High Weald AONB for its rolling hills, diverse landscapes and wild, untamed flora and fauna. The Long route makes its way to the most South-Easterly reaches of the Kent Downs as it loops up and around Sevenoaks before crossing over the Bough Beech reservoir and returning back to Lingfield.

Of course, you’ll be rewarded for all your efforts as you cross the finish line to receive a finisher medal and other goodies from our partners.

Our Kent cycling event has always been popular due to being extremely accessible for lots of riders, so if you want to join us, don’t hang about on this one. We look forward to seeing you in October.
