The Ranmore special is an unusual HITR route – comparatively flat but with the eponymous lump in the middle.
The London to Whitstable one-way cycling route heads south over Crystal Palace, out of London, before the climb up the side of Biggin Hill.
Not content to go up Leith Hill once? Try going up and down it eight times from different angles. This is a gruelling ride with little recovery between climbs and nearly 2500m of elevation.
The Frensham Pond cycling route in the Surrey Hills heads out to the heathland and ponds beyond Guildford. After one large climb up Staple Lane to the Shere Woodlands the route turns away from the hills and begins a rolling route. Looping wide of Guildford, it heads through heathland to the area south of Godalming. From there it takes a loop around the ponds at Frensham.
The Redhill Aerodrome Circuit cycling route heads south from Hampton Court Bridge, up over Box Hill before heading further south with a loop south of Reigate. There is an opportunity to stop at Redhill Aerodrome’s café to watch light aircraft take off and land. The route then heads north towards Kingston.
The Surrey Trails & Hills gravel route heads down to the Box Hill area for a loop before continuing on to Ranmore Common, White Downs and Effingham Forest.
The Kent Ramp Hunter is a relatively short but VERY challenging ride that takes on some of the steepest climbs in the area.
