This year again, on May 7th, 2023 we offer the choice of TWO distances. The Classic 26 miles or the Killer 14-Hills at double the distance.
The 7 Hills follows a way marked course designed to test a riders strength, endurance and determination. The ride traces the spine of the Island as it winds up and over over chalky downlands and through ancient forests. All thew while taking in the breathtaking coastal scenery of the South Wight with its stunning views looking across the English Channel.
Along the way you will take on some of the Island’s toughest off road climbs as you weave your way from Freshwater Bay to Sandown Airport.
