This ride has the insatiably mix that makes Sportive riding so fantastic! Be warned this rides books up fast, and why? Well, we start off with a gentle warm-up through undulating minor roads to the West of Guildford. This follows a deliciously challenging climb up on to the North Downs with views over the Surrey Hills and quiet lanes to catch your breath, and a brilliant descent to the finale. This area will feature heavily in the eventful 2012 sporting year to come, so join us to get your taste of the action.
