Breeze to Black Cap via the South Downs. Triangular route. Advanced. (mellow yellow)

We will be exploring our lovely Stanmer Park and heading North to Ditchling Beacon then West to Black Cap and finally to complete our triangle, back down to through meadows to our starting point in Stanmer Park. This is a challenging route with lengthy and steep inclines. You need to have the fitness to be able to cycle up hill on your bike.

This is a challenging route of about 13 miles. We will start at the Lower Lodges Stanmer Park and weave our way along the A27 before turning off and climbing to Black Cap via the SDW. From there we will head towards Ditchling Beacon where we will stop and take in the stunning views. Then we turn left and head on some superb descents through meadow and gravel. It's a beautiful ride and will give you a good work out.

We will be riding on a range of terrain including - tarmac cycle path, gravel paths, chalky path and meadow and woodland.

We will take several stops to take in the wonderful scenery and have a snakc and drink. Upon our return we will have coffee and cake at the cafe in Lower Lodges car park.

Please ensure your bikes are in good working order. MTB, gravel or hybrid only. Skinny wheel bikes will not be appropriate in this instance.

We never leave anyone behind
