Breeze to the RideLondon100 Hills.
The 3 hills are: Staple Lane (alongside Newlands Corner), Leith Hill and Box Hill.
60-65miles, c.3600ft climbing.
This is a hard Challenging+ ride. However, the route is also very beautiful and scenic, and we shall have 2 café stops. These are the Dabbling Duck (hooray!) and Box Hill Café.
ROUTE
Bushy Park, Esher, Cobham, STAPLE LANE, Shere (café 1), Holmbury St Mary, LEITH HILL, Friday Street, BOX HILL (café 2) up and down Zig Zag Road, up Juniper (Headley Lane), Leatherhead, Cobham, West End village, Esher, Hampton Court, Bushy Park.
SPEED
Relaxed and steadily paced. No one left behind.
Own pace on hills, re-grouping at the top/bottom. Unrushed. Re-grouping at junctions.
Strava average speed over the distance likely to be 18-20kph/11-12mph because of so many hills. This means that we shall be riding along substantially faster on flat roads c. 23-26kph/14-16mph. Pace of slowest, looking out for each other.
Back around 3:30pm.
YOUR BIKE
Must be clean, and in excellent working condition.
