London Dynamo | Biggin Hill Loop Cycling Route

Tour of the Isle of Wight

The Tour of the Isle of Wight is now a London Dynamo summer tradition. After an early morning ferry from Portsmouth, the route goes anti-clockwise round the island, taking in the chain link ferry at Cowes, the steep climb up to the view point of the Needles and the fast but breezy Military Road.

Hever Loop

The Hever Loop cycling route is a bit more challenging than the loop via Bough Beech. Instead of going south over Toys Hill and north over Ide Hill, it does the reverse. This allows for the exhilarating Ide Hill descent and, after a Chiddingstone stop and a loop around Hever Castle, climbing the more challenging north side of Toys Hill, and another great descent down Brasted Chart.

North Kent Woods & Downs

The North Kent Woods & Downs cycling route heads out into the Dickens country of the North Kent Woods & Downs National Nature Reserve. The route involves a fair amount of climbing in the first half of the ride culminating in Vigo Hill just before the café stop in the woods of Trosley Country Park.

The Henry VIII Gravel Loop

The Henry VIII gravel loop extends the Chartwell loop. Rather than heading over to Chartwell and Toys Hill, it heads further south to Hever Castle (home of the Boleyns hence the route name), Chiddingstone castle & village before a steep climb up Yorks Hill and the return leg to Surrey.

London to Oxford

The London to Oxford one-way route heads out west from Kingston, shadowing the Thames, through Twyford and Henley and on into the Chilterns.
