Epsom Race Course, Sunday 13th October 2013.
The Epic 103 miles and Standard 80 miles routes take in the famous hills including: Leith Hill, Pitch Hill, White Down, and all routes including the Short 44 mile, incorporate the Olympic Road Race climb of iconic ‘Box Hill'. Three out of these four hills are in the UK's top 100 cycling climbs that every rider should experience.
Now in its third year, the Box Hill Original is quite a challenge for a season finale, with awesome hills to get the legs pumping and amazing descents to get the heart racing.
The route takes in the best of the varied and beautiful landscape of the Surrey Hills and the North Downs. Starting from the amazing Epsom Racecourse, this new venue will help cope with the increased demand for this sell out event. It has plenty of parking and outstanding facilities.
