Whether you are taking a test ride^ or just out for the weekend, why not try out our suggested routes and ask us about some great stops along the way?
We're taking this trip for our very first Ride Out on 21 March 2010. Check out our Ride Out page for more details.
13th Century Hever Castle and its 125 acres of gardens offer the visitor plenty to discover and enjoy. Even better though, the route there takes just over the hour by bike and offers a great mix of roads to suit all abilities, plus some stunning scenery along the way.
Whether you want to go the whole way and take a day out, or just test it out as far as Uckfield then loop back to Brighton, the map and directions below are here to get you started.
