On this
National Fitness Day the ride is mainly on quiet country lanes through Chandler’s Cross, Belsize, Flauden, Chenies, Sarratt & Loudwater. There is a long, winding descent into the Chess Valley followed by a short, steep 9% climb up to Chenies. After a coffee stop at 10.4 miles we descend again into the Chess Valley and then have a 7% climb out of the river basin on Flaunden Hill.
From the starting point the ride proceeds clockwise on the first and second loops then counter-clockwise on the third loop.
This 22 mile route has 1,112 feet of climbs and will aim towards an average pace over the ride of 10-11 mph.
