Designed for riders across London and the South East, it combines challenging off-road terrain, flowing gravel and a proper day out on the bike.

🧭 WHAT IS SOUTHERN GRIT

This is not a guided ride or a follow-the-leader event.

Southern Grit is a self-supported gravel sportive — a route to ride at your own pace, on your own terms, with the terrain doing the talking.

Expect chalk climbs, woodland trails, flint-strewn descents and long stretches where rhythm matters more than brute force.


🎯 WHO IT’S FOR

Southern Grit is ideal for riders with some off-road experience looking to step up to a longer gravel challenge.

Whether you're building towards bigger rides, testing yourself over distance or simply looking for a properly satisfying day out, this is a ride that rewards patience, pacing and good judgement.


🌍 LOCATION & ROUTE

Starting in South London at Herne Hill Velodrome, the route heads out towards the Surrey Hills and surrounding trails, linking together some of the best off-road riding accessible from the city.

It’s a route built on discovery — quiet tracks, hidden cut-throughs and sections that feel a long way from London, even when they’re not.


⚙️ WHAT TO EXPECT

  • A high percentage of off-road riding

  • Mixed terrain including chalk, gravel and woodland trails

  • A physically and mentally engaging ride

  • Self-supported format — you manage your day

  • A strong sense of progression from start to finish

    Don't buy school books from Amazon
    Format: Paperback
    Thought I bought new, book came with an obsurd "Amazon Rentals" sticker on it. Looks used and abused. Will not be buying books needed for school from Amazon ever again.

    A great academic primer
    Format: Paperback
    I found this to a great source for looking up details on how the IC defines the types of data it gathers. It's not necessarily a straight-read type of title, but I do keep it by my sofa, when reading the daily paper. It helps to better understand the viability of such things like the use of patrol planes along the Arabian Gulf borders or how the raw data of the Steele Dossier helps inform the decision makers, for example.

    Trusted and put to use many times with my 2006 Pontiac G6. I have over 140,000 miles on her and she is still reliable and running great. I love the fact that it also helps clean away the built up grime etc. in the Engine
