A cyclo-sportive event starting at Reigate college organised by Southern Sportive. A flowing route from the North Downs out towards Kent Weald around Sevenoaks and Hever Castle.
It's a nicely paced and balanced route, which eases you into your day with it's early miles providing a perfect leg stretcher, before delivering you into a deceptively hilly mid section that set's the biggest of the day's challenges. From there, it's a long and fast run to the finish back through the heart of some truly stunning countryside.
