King of the Downs Sportive
Event info
Its back for another year, the big one. 115 miles with 9,000ft of climbing, testing each rider to their limit.
The King of the Downs – Evans Cycles RIDE IT crowning glory. The route covers the Surrey hills, North Downs, Ashdown Forest and Kent, and accumulates 9,000ft of climbing on the 115 mile route. There is a 54 mile option available which promises to be just as inspiring. The ride begins from Evans Cycles HQ in Gatwick with a number of notable climbs along the route, including Leith Hill, Kidd’s Hill (The Wall) and Titsey Hill. Every entrant will receive a pre-ride breakfast and cooked meal on their return, as well an abundance of energy products to keep you going throughout the day. Your entry also includes a fantastic bag full of goodies that you can pick up after the ride.
