Wilmington to Brighton (18-04-09)


View Wilmington to Brighton in a larger map
2hrs 45mins, 24.89 miles, 9mph Av, 32.6 max.
A good afternoon out when the wind is from the East. Pain in the arse if its not. Going East-West takes in the longest downhill stretch around, from Firle Beacon on South Ease. You dont have to start in the woods, thats just were the car dropped off. The woods are busy with kids, dogs, horses (all with little/no sense), so best avoided really.

16.74 miles, 2hrs 16mins, Av 7.3mph, Max 31mph
A quick jaunt around Ladybower near Sheffield with our friends in the North. Nothing too taxing here, but the drove tracks are rocky as hell compared to the South Downs. Whiteknuckle stuff at points. First aid kit came in handy here, as Ben took a fall going at 2mph and bled everywhere!
