EPIC ONE DAY SOUTH DOWNS WAY
ฝัง

- Mark Hudson and I (Thomas Dibley) trained for a short time to ride The South Downs Way in one day. This 100 mile off road trail stretches from Winchester across the South Downs National Park, all the way to Eastbourne. It is a really tough ride with hills getting steeper the further in to the ride you get. It does NOT get easier towards the end.
If you want to do the ride, do your research and train! There are regular water stops, but keep your eyes open as there are no shops en route.

great vid. you've made me want to do it. maybe over 2 days though so I can have a few beers and a kip half way through.
IceDre20 thanks for saying so. It was a hard day but it's always fun. In a kinda sadistic sort of way.
legends great achievement and great edit 😊
John Newman thanks John
Nice vid - makes me want to give it a go!!
Thank you. It is a fun day...if a little knackering.
Great film. We attempted it in two days last weekend and I blew out at 39 miles. I was ashamed. Trails were washed out and treacherous. Not a good summer. Will train for next year and go for June to get a dry trail and the evening light. Also think a full susser will be a better bet.
Yep, it's so chalky that a wet day is not the day to attempt it. You'll be spinning everywhere. While I have a full sudser, i've always done it on hardtails. I'm not sure it's more efficient, but by 80+ miles, you're looking to save every ounce of efficiency. 39 miles in those conditions shouldn't be sniffed at. Next year, when it stays light longer, would be ideal.
Well done guys !
I must share the crazy gene as I'm itching to do the Downs in a day too 😂
Inspiring video. Thanks 🙏🏻
Paul Brown thanks so much for saying so Paul. Every time I do it I promise that I'll never do it again.
I'll never do it again.
Maybe.
