Evans Cycles Ride It! Brighton - Sportive-Road Entry

Leaving the grounds of Plumpton College, this route utilises the lovely local lanes nestled at the foot of the South Downs before a long challenging climb over the Downs themselves. The 360 degree views of rolling green hills and the open ocean are well worth the effort, as is the fast, long descent. The longer routes will include more steep climbs, including the famous Ditchling Beacon. (Although this means using a cycle lane to get back out of Brighton, but we think it's worth it!!)
