London to Brighton Return

Cycling Route

Details
114.38 mi
7,769 ft
From the city, through the suburbs and into the countryside, with the testing climb of Ditchling Beacon just before the beach below, the London to Brighton route is full of action. Many riders choose to take the train back into the city after filling up on fish and chips along the coast. However, those looking for serious mileage can point their bikes north and head back through quiet lanes to the bustle of the city.  


* Artisan (café start, Upper Richmond Road, Putney)
* Velocafe (café, Brighton)
* The Regency (café, Brighton)
* Bankers (chip shop, Brighton)
* The Devil's Dyke (pub on return leg)
