If the route wasn't so flat I'm sure Iannnnn would be riding this one.

Up Hubbard Hill
Up Star Hill

Upwards ever upwards or is there a downhill bit in between

A gentle downhill after Hubbard around the back of Sevenoaks, nothing too major. I thought it would be more dramatical to have Hill after Hill.

Route sounds like a good one. The area around Cowden is particularly nice.

Great route but maybe a bit hard for so early in the season.....If your flying on this one then you are sure to be burnt out by the spring! Good training for the hell of ashdown though.

No need to trtavel to far for a hily ride. Have a look at this thread. As far as I know no-one has yet done the round trip (or even one way)
