This video is taken from my GoPro cameras while cycling the British Heart Foundation London to Brighton Bike Ride. This is NOT an official video, but my own personal footage.
What is it like to cycle the London to Brighton Bike Ride? I include some personal advice about the ride as an aid to those planning to do the ride for the first time. The footage includes Ditchling Beacon, Turners Hill and all the major places on the ride.
The video is intended for people planning to do the event - or to reminisce on a previous ride.

Did this ride yesterday, can not tell you how invaluable this video was as a guide for a first timer. Thank you very much

Thanks! Glad it helped!

Total time can vary year by year - mostly depending on factors such as road traffic to get out of London, bike jams and weather. Last year was great for me - as I had the early start time - plus there was a gentle northerly breeze to blow us all the way to Brighton. This meant fewer unplanned stops (in hold ups) - so I did do a few other quick stops - including to change batteries in the chest mounted GoPro. Bottom line, I would estimate circa 1 hour - for wee and battery breaks. I didn’t stop for food or drink- as I carried my own. I do always stop for circa 10 minutes before Ditchling Beacon to get my head in the right place. I hope that helps. Good luck on the ride!

I just watched this and it was amazing! My other half does this ride nearly every year and I wondered what it's like on the ground- WOW! You're so fit and brave! Thanks for the insight.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks a lot for sharing such a detailed walkthrough video, Mike! I always wondered how bike friendly is the route in practice.

@thespokesperson8197 Год назад

Loved watching this, Mike! My son (14) & I are doing this on Sunday...Father's Day! I did it 30 years ago with my dad so it'll be amazing to repeat the experience.

@mikeonhisbikes Год назад

Thanks! I’m there too - with an 06:30 start🥱😀 Good luck on the ride!

@thespokesperson8197 Год назад

@@mikeonhisbikes We're down for 9am, which my wife appreciates - she's dropping us off and collecting us in Brighton at the end. Ride safe!

@cliveshembe6732 2 месяца назад

Thanks for posting this - very useful. I've just signed up to ride L1B this September. Have done several sportives in the past, the Prudential LondonSurrey 100 and London-to-Paris a couple of times but quite a while ago! I've even ridden up Ditchling Beacon but I had just ridden down from London but Westerham. Thanks again and well done on your ride.👍👍👍

Thanks. Glad it was helpful!

@martinwarne Год назад

I did L2B last year too, though I started in a later wave than you. Watching this brought back some great memories!

@georgelawrance8370 Год назад

I enjoyed reliving the ride thanks

@MavisFilms 7 месяцев назад

Great video! I'm doing it for the first time this year, and am also going to film it for my channel. So I've now got some inspiration and ideas!

@mikeonhisbikes 4 месяца назад

Go for it!

Brilliant video.. I've done it twice before and I'll be doing it again this Sunday (16th June 2024)..

@studiotwentyone 2 месяца назад

@mikeonhisbikes Месяц назад

Thanks!

@marcindomzal9871 2 месяца назад

I'm going this year for the first time. My best friend convinced me to do it and it's going to be his 3th L2B ride. I hope I'll be able to reach finishing line.

@mikeonhisbikes 2 месяца назад

You can do it! See you there!

@goshakozi1541 2 месяца назад

@mikeonhisbikes 2 месяца назад

I'll be there. See you Sunday!

@arturk6124 9 месяцев назад

Well done buddy Medal well deserved. Get your ols mtb and do the off road L2B in september.

@mikeonhisbikes 4 месяца назад

Yeah, that looks interesting (and hard work) for sure!

@rascalvanruss Год назад

Hey Mike! Thanks for the video. I am thinking to do it this year, and was looking for some information what to expect, what routes are there etc. etc. This video explains it all. I did Ride London Essex 100 last month and it was my first ever cycling event, so i guess it shouldn't be so difficult for me to do Brighton ride? Cheers

@oxharp Год назад

Hi Mike, Great video and just what i needed for next week. One question I see you did it in 4h and a bit. How long did you rest for? I have a start time of 8.30am. I have estimated about the same time but I am on a road bike with a mountain bike cassette 11/40 for those hills, so was the 4 hrs plus without rest time? TIA
