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 Standard route. The Circuit Breaker was a Wiggle Super Series sportive held in late October and is no longer run.

On the route

In 2013 the Circuit Breaker started at the Silverstone motor racing circuit and rode out into the countryside around it.

The route measures 84.5km with 1,054m of climbing, which gives it a Terrain label of Hilly. Its climbing comes in short rises rather than long sustained climbs.

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.

Event names and logos belong to their owners and are shown for identification only. London Dynamo is not affiliated with these events.

Notable climbs

No single climb on this route is long or steep enough to list.
