    Tips

    Cycling

    Short but leg/lung-testing road climb leading up to the Downs, averaging about 12%. It kicks off with a pretty steep section which goes round a narrow bend, so watch out for oncoming traffic. There's a car park at the top — a very popular spot for dog walkers. Tarmac ends up there but loads of brilliant off-road options awaiting!

    Road cycling

    Tackling Butts Lane from Eastbourne's Old Town confronts you with a short but savage local 'wall' climb. Prepare for an immediate, intense effort as the narrow lane kicks up brutally, averaging around 12-13% with relentless ramps peaking near 19-20%. With little shelter from the wind, be prepared for gusts, especially near the top. Cresting the summit rewards you with stunning coastal views.
