THE ETAPE DU SUSSEX
Event info
The Etape du Sussex embraces the wonderful countryside of East and West Sussex. The event starts and finishes in the centre of Burgess Hill.
There are three stunning routes to choose from to test all abilities.
All routes start off relatively flat before heading into the Ashdown Forest area where most of the major hills for all three routes reside.
Its fair to say that the Etape du Sussex is a ride of two halves, with the first half being much hillier than the second half.
Classic Route 87 miles
Challenge Route 60 miles
Tour Route 47 miles
Phil Liggett the voice of cycling will be taking part in this event in support of the charity Helping Rhinos which he is a Patron.
Check the website for details on how you can raise funds for Helping Rhinos and potentially get your entry fee refunded.

Surely that should be "L' Étape du Sussex" ?
There are group discounts available on the Etape du Sussex Cyclosportive and also you can ride for free if you raise funds for Phil Liggett's charity Helping Rhinos.
