Saturday Casual Road Ride - Box Hill

Submitted by Graham H on Tue, 09/03/2010 - 22:27

Todays ride is more endurance based and would suit members looking for a steady pace approx 85 kms. This ride is a favourite of mine so has everything from flats, undulations and sharp short hills. Route goes through some pretty villages and country back lanes . The only real challenge is White Down and that is an 18% climb - and coming home its back over the Surrey Hills. So a solid distance ride but a comfortable pace.
