Surrey Sportive
Event info
Starting and finishing in the Surrey Sports Park, (GU2 7AD), there is ample free parking, changing rooms and showers. Coffee will be available from Starbucks near registration.
Once registered and time chip collected you'll head off in a South-Westerly direction towards the Hampshire border.
With only 3 cat 5 climbs on the long course (71miles, (115k) and 2 on the short (39 miles (63k), there is just over 2000 feet and just under 1000 feet of climbing on the courses. Both will roll through the Surrey and Hampshire countryside and will be great for those new to sportives.
Riders will just need to follow the clearly marked routes. Both will be fully supported by Cycle Surgery mechanics and patrolling First Aid crews. There will also be feed-stations both with shelter and loaded with homemade cakes, GU gels, water and GU energy drink. Flushing facilities will be available at both!

The spokes and nipples are not anodised for environmental reasons, but the rims are. Which is a lot more metal. Hmm...
