Event summary
Here are the distances available for Spring Onion 2024
Route information
Elevation: Undulating - 4458ft over 65.92 miles
Terrain: Road
The route starts in Cobham before travelling south into the Surrey Hills, an area of outstanding natural beauty. Riders will travel all the way down near Petworth before looping back up through Plaistow and Shere, before heading back up to Cobham.
See hereExternalLink for a full GPX of the course.
The feed station is located at The Cricketers Arms Pub Wisbrough Green.
This event is designed to be a way to test your own performance, not so much a race so you can take it at your own pace and challenge yourself. However, now in its 15th year, there is a twist coming to 2024. Riders will now have 6 hours to cover the course, thats 1.5 hours less than 2023 – it’s time to go hard or go home! This equates to just under 11mph (17.33 kph), starting at 08:30, feed station closes at 11:30 and the event finishes at 14:30. As a way of celebrating the 15th edition the orgnaiser will be rewarding those who enter and finish within a time band a discount on their foreign trips in 2025!
What's included

Very grateful for the food and drink provided. The course was good with some challeging climbs. Lack of atmosphere due to the relatively small number of entrants. I didn't see many riders on the course but enjoyed it nonetheless.

Course was nice but obviously can't plan for the weather which was a wash out. Meant much smaller in number so not really much atmosphere. Staff all nice and supportive though.

Hot drinks at the feed station would have been good.

The weather almost ruined the event. I got round and enjoyed the satisfaction of finishing. The organisers did a good job in touch circumstances. My only complaint would be about a couple of missing signs on the course.

Good course with great scenery; often terrible road surfaces though; and poor signage in parts.

Nice course. Would have it scheduled later in the year. Food was average at halfway point and no hot drinks.

bad weather made the event seem quite sparse. signage for turns was accurate but also a little sparse at times if not able to use GPS. Friendly volunteers and a great course

Really enjoyed it despite torrential rain throughout. Mechanics were amazing. However, this ride would NOT suit inexperienced riders. Also we had 2 punctures which added about 35 mins to our time. Arriving back after over 7 hours of cycling ( slow speed of 11. 25 miles per hour) it would have been really nice to have been able to have a nice hot cuppa and some pasta but sadly there was nothing .

Spring Onion first timer and I'll be back next year. Nice event on 'home' roads, really nice challenging course, great organisation and well stocked aide station. Thank you for a memorable day.
