The Frimley Loop cycling route is a slightly longer and hillier alternative heading further south towards and Farnborough. The route steadily climbs up to the village for Mytchett and Frimley Lodge Park.

The Windsor Alternative Loop cycling route differs from the Classic Loop in that it does not come back so directly. Rather than shadowing the river by Staines, this route turns up Crimp Hill and Callow Hill for a lumpier and more scenic return journey. It rejoins the usual route at Chertsey.
The Rochester Rouleur cycling route is a scenic rolling out-and-back route to Rochester. After traversing the northern ridge of the Downs it heads east along the eastern end of the old Pilgrims’ Way to the coast.
