London to Brighton Cycle Ride

Join over 4,000 other riders on the famous 55-mile route

Starting at Clapham Common and finishing on Brighton's beautiful seafront.

Imagine stopping at the picturesque village of Turners Hill for lunch before climbing to the top of the South Downs, and soaring into Brighton for a victorious finish!

It's the perfect challenge for beginner cyclists taking on their first big challenge, corporate groups looking for a team cycle, or even experienced riders looking to get in some extra miles.

As part of the Help for Heroes team you will receive:

• Fundraising advice and tools
• Water stops along the route
  
• On ride support teams to take care of any punctures
• Support from our dedicated team from the moment you join us through to the finish line, and beyond.
