On over the North Downs and through wonderful Surrey & Sussex countryside to the ‘half way’ point at Turners Hill. For full 100 km challengers – its more Sussex countryside and then up & over the steep South Downs with the Brighton coast then coming into view – followed by the final push towards a memorable Brighton Racecourse finish line.
