Part 2 of the Trilogy: into the Chilterns
Designed to be ridden across several days (unless you’re into ultra), the London Revolution loop is an epic loop that crosses six different counties and showcases the shifting landscape of London's Green Belt.
It is predominantly a road-cycling route that relies on quiet country lanes, rolling hills, and occasional cycle paths.
I’ll lead 3 different rides, one in June, one in July and one in August - always on a Saturday as long as the weather is good.
Rough distance: 88km, 700m elevation
Meet a outside Effingham Junction station from 10:00 we start rolling at 10:15 sharp
12:30 Half Way at the Cinnamon Café in Windsor: Windsor Royal Station, Jubilee Arch, Windsor SL4 1PJ
15:30 Approximate end in Great Missenden. Pinch there or train back to London. Metropolitan line in Amersham is a short ride away
Please note this is a Steady ride keeping a medium and constant pace with only one main stop.
🌟 Vibe & Style: steady to speedy pace rural ride on beautiful country lanes, significant climbs.
📐 Distance: 88km ~ 5h Inc stop

Take a close look at the full Trilogy for what’s to come in June and August (potentially we will end or start at different points very close to the “official” route) https://www.komoot.com/tour/2301610155?ref=itd&share_token=aAf6pZa81H6kLRJyUp2vjPVZh3FYDak6rD2w7il4dNGNHO7Oje&ref=its
