The London to Brighton Cycle ride is a favourite with cyclists of all abilities from all over the country. This much loved route will see 4000 cyclists setting off from Clapham Common to take on the 54 miles to the beautiful coastal town of Brighton. The Route winds its way though through Surreys beautiful country lanes and stunning Sussex scenery, facing the steep ascent of Ditchling Beacon before being rewarding with breath taking views of the South Downs. From here, it is all downhill for those last few miles towards the Brighton seafront.
