Organiser's Description

Our Surrey Hills Classic event is just that, an absolute CLASSIC! With the Long and Middle routes taking in Leith Hill - the highest point in Southern England at 294m - followed by a ride around the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and up Box Hill for those tackling the Long route. Your legs will certainly be ready for that finish-line beer.

The Short route at just over 50km and 500m of vertical ascent will give even the newest rider the opportunity to experience the Surrey Hills in all their glory. Regardless of the route you choose, you’ll weave and wind through an amazing variety of countryside, from the rolling chalk downs and flower-rich grasslands to the heaths and woodlands.

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. And just because you've finished the ride, that doesn't mean you have to go home. Why not stay on in our rider’s village for some pizza and post-ride banter?

We’re so excited to be returning to the Surrey Hills for another year as it’s a firm favourite amongst the UK Cycling Event riders, due to it being a route that is accessible for many with the added bonus of ticking off famous climbs. We hope you are able to join us.

Great organisation, route, signing and marshalling. Excellent rest stop. Really nice route with the climb of Leith hill adding a proper workout. My computer went up to 16%. A long way from elitist with a big range taking part.

Gorgeous course that is well signposted and marshalled. There could be a couple more marshals at intersections, but otherwise very good. Would highly recommend, but it is brutally hilly!

Well organised event, great route, excellent signage with encouraging messages up the hills which gave it a really personal feel. Would definitely recommend.
