Biggin Hill Sportive
Event info
An established fixture on the RIDE IT calendar, and ever popular with riders, this is a great way to clock up the miles before the winter sets in. We start in Biggin Hill and are instantly out into the country touring some of the best country lanes through Kent. The North Downs feature heavily on this ride, alongside some swooping descents and tricky climbs, including Toys Hill and Titsey Hill. This is a tough ride but the climbing is rewarded with quick descents and far-reaching views which will make all the efforts worthwhile.
This event has sold out for the previous 4 years, so please be aware that on the day entries are unlikely to be available.
