Why not kick start your Mapic 2019 Training and Join David Johnston on this 71km Surrey Hills route with 1,200m of climbing - https://www.strava.com/routes/19563671

A loop of the less steep Surrey Hills starting at Box Hill and Westhumble Station @ 8.45am.  There are trains from Waterloo or if you are driving there is a car park at the bottom of Box Hill a few minutes ride away.

We go up and down the Ranmore Ridge a couple of times before descending into Shere.  Cruise round to Ewehurst and go up Holmbury Hill and Leith Hill from its gentlest side.  Down into Dorking at about 55km (with the option of getting on the train there) before having a coffee at the top of Box Hill (60km).  A gentle warm down round the back of Box Hill and back to Box Hill and Westhumble Station (71km).

No-one will be dropped and you climb at your own pace.  Likely to be a 4 hour ride including the coffee stop.

There is the option of joining and finishing at Wimbledon Station at 7.20am which will add 25km and 250m of climbing each way.
