As I mentioned in the previous post, I had watched the Prudential Ride London and really fancied giving it a crack next year.
It’s a lovely, but challenging route that takes in some of the best cycling roads in South London and Surrey. As well as the iconic Box Hill climb (the second most popular Strava segment in the UK after a stretch in Richmond Park), the route also takes in Ranmore Common and Leith Hill. The fact that it is a closed roads sportive and that the pros ride this course as well makes it a little bit more special, indeed this is now a one day Classic recognised on the UCI tour calendar
I will be riding for the Rainbow Trust again and I’m encouraging Adam to sign up too as it would be a great experience for both of us and would definitely justify a new bike! Rainbow have been efficient and sprightly as per usual! Despite only signing up yesterday I was greeted with the below on my return from work today
29th July 2018 is the date for this so plenty of time to get back in the gym and back on the bike!

Nice target! I always wanted to do Ride London.
