Kent & Surrey Hills Epic

Organiser's Description

Ride one of the toughest routes in the South East and take on 13 major climbs (including 8 in the Top 100 climbs) in Surrey & Kent.

From Wotton, the Surrey Hills bring the steep climbs of Barhatch and Coombe Lane, before heading along the North Downs ridge to Kent. The toughest part of the route is the 50km between Sevenoaks and Redhill, with some super punchy climbs including Toys Hill & Chalkpit Lane before coming back into Surrey for a sharp last 20km over Leith Hill.

With over 3,000m of elevation, this is as tough a ride as you can get in the South East and a real challenge to put in the calendar for 2022.

Really tough ride and I enjoyed it. It was well organised with good email and sms communication before the ride. It was great having mechanical support available before, during and after the ride. The feed stops were good and the signposting. One suggestion for improvement is to have more of a choice for food/snacks after the event.
