London Dynamo | North Kent Woods & Downs Cycling Route

Drift Road

If speed endurance is what you are looking to build, Drift Road offers a long flat straight.

Lee Valley & Epping Forest Gravel

This gravel route heads up past the lakes and marshes of the Lee Valley before looping back down through Epping Forest. The route up the valley passes the Walthamstow Wetlands, Waltham Abbey, Lee Valley Country Park and the River Lee Navigation canal. The return leg heads first out into open farmland before heading right through the heart of Epping Forest before back into London.

Chelmsford Loop

The Chelmsford Loop cycling route offers up a scenic loop from London to Essex beyond Epping Forest.

Surrey Explorer: Climbs, Views & Lanes

This scenic cycling route through the Surrey Hills takes in the climb up through the Shere Woodlands, Holmbury Hill and Leith Hill before the long descent down through Redlands Wood.

Chartwell Gravel Loop

This gravel route takes us a largely off-road route from Hampton Court Palace heading south-east out of Surrey and into Kent where it descends off the north ridge of the Downs and winds its way offroad to Churchill’s family home of Chartwell. It then heads through woods of Toys Hill before the return leg back to Surrey.

Classic Surrey Hills – Short

The Classic Surrey Hills (shorter version) cycling route tackles three of the local hills. Firstly, the route tackles Staple Lane which rises up to the Shere Woodlands before a steep descent down Combe Lane, followed by a hard right and second sharp climb up Crock North through Effingham Forest to Ranmore Common. The subsequent descent down through Ashcombe Wood is followed by the iconic Box Hill climb. This in turn is followed by a long descent and the return leg to East Molsey.
