Route checked and route sheet updated today, please note-
Due to the constant rain (some accounts of 17 inches nr Eastbourne since October).
Some of the lanes are awash with gravel & mud from the fields run off.
There are also hidden potholes disguised as puddles in some areas, you have been warned.
If in doubt dismount and walk there are only a few areas like the top of Argos hill
from 36.00km and the descent down Post Mill Lane at 36.79km to the T.
There are however some new surfaces, which are a joy to ride.
Road closure sign at 11.93km on White Horse Rd, but this will not effect the L at 12.10km Churches Green Lane.
There's a sign missing @ 14.36 km but your going Left and following the road. ( $ did say Woods Corner).
Old cuckoo trail Bridge has been removed at 42.65km, but they have left the buttresses.
There's a massive pothole hidden in a puddle between 57.77 km and the INFO at 58.67 km, so avoid the right hand side of the lane on this section just before the INFO!
Route sheet has been updated.
Everything else is OK as of today, a final route check may happen over the weekend.
Please make sure you refer to the route sheet for info locations and fill in the answers in the brevet card if riding solely
with GPX / GPS, sorry if you present you brevet at the finish to us with no info answers filled in,
your brevet will not be validated so no brevet!
If your intension is to ECE this event (yes please do), please ensure you arrive at the start in good time, we will be rolling on to Mayfield
and packed up by 09.00, if you are late starting then you will miss the first secret control!
