About this route

This route was designed by the organisers of the Circuit Breaker, Wiggle and UK Cycling Events, not by London Dynamo.

Sportive routes change from year to year, and this page follows the 2013 Epic route. The Circuit Breaker was a Wiggle Super Series sportive held in late October and is no longer run.

On the route

The route measures 137.7km with 1,644m of climbing, which gives it a Terrain label of Hilly. Its notable climbs are listed below.

This page is for riding the route outside the sportive, on your own or with friends. There are no organised feed stops, so plan your food and water for the day.
