Really good route. Did it in reverse. Getting out of london was fine - route takes advantage of dedicated cycle paths and subways. Between the M25 and the Southdowns the route requires a lot of slugging up and freewheeling down Surrey's rolling countryside. I found this to be more challenging then the distance. It was very nice to see so much wildlife along the way; sparrow hawks, grass snakes, rabbits and deer. Places to purchase refreshments along the route are understandably few and far between. I recommend stopping at Haselmere for lunch, and Harting Stores in South Harting.
