The challenge begins in Stratford, London home of the 2012 Olympic Velodrome. The route will follow congestion free paths to the edge of London followed by impressive countryside and rural beauty, covering approximately 55 miles before reaching the overnight point the Stoke Mandeville Stadium Hotel - Home of the Paralympics.
