I get bored going around Richmond Park after a couple of laps so looking for any advice of good cycling routes ... maybe 50 miles round trip?

Did some cycling today, ended up going through central London , Oxford street etc .. not the best idea on a busy Saturday!

    Why not head out to Box Hill. It seems to be a popular destination for roadies. There is a National Trust tea room at the top that sells good tea and nice cakes!

    I was in a similiar situation and did not know where else to ride but joined up with a S London club and riding with them has given me a few more routes most of which head down into Surrey, Box Hill, Toys Hill, etc.

    Look at some of the sportives down that way for routes as well.

    Lots of great riding to be had in Surrey Hills. Go out via RP, Kingston, Esher & Cobham then explore.

    Like hills?
