The Summit Sixty-Five – One Event. Three Great Rides.
The Summit Sixty-Five in miles or km – you decide! The Summit Sixty-Five offers three cracking route options for all ability levels – 65 miles, 65km/40miles or 15 miles. The 15 mile ride is perfect for active fun and family riders and will also be the route for an accompanied Summit Go Ride for youth riders aged 10-16. By contrast the 65 mile ride is a serious challenge for experienced off road cyclists – “Hell of the Chilterns” HOTC anyone?

Best Trails and Scenery in the South East?
The ride area is a stunningly beautiful and unspoilt part of the country with the routes made up of lots of great woodland or tree-lined singletrack linking classic Chiltern byways, bridleways and quiet lanes. The Summit Sixty-Five mile route also includes the easy to follow, ‘ancient’ double track of the Ridgeway National Trail.
