DV 2026 Segments – Lunghurst Road, Chalkpit Lane, Tupwood Lane segments
Overview – Distance: 88 km, Climbing: 1150 m
Café stop – Caterham, Banstead
This route includes two new segments Lunghurst Road and Tupwood Lane plus the evil Chalkpit Lane. Head towards Caterham via Banstead and Coulsdon. From the Ann Summers roundabout head to Woldingham and Halliloo Valley Road. Turn right at some large gates onto Lunghurst Road.
The Lunghurst Road segment starts shortly after the junction. The finish is at a 30mph sign when the road levels out. After the segment keep going up to the green in Woldingham. If you require food and drink, turn right and the Village Shop is 100m away. The route turns left to the golf course then left along The Ridge to the top of Chalpit lane.
Descend Chalkpit lane with care and take in the steep bends with bad road surface! At the bottom of the hill, I suggest going a short way along Barrow Green Road so that your computer correctly registers the start. Oxted shops are along on the left if you need supplies.
The Chalkpit Lane segment starts soon after the junction, and it finishes metres from the junction at the top. Turn right at the top and head to Botley Hill. Take a left turn on the Croydon Road. Turn left onto Halliloo Valley Road and descend back to the Ann Summers roundabout. Take the 2nd exit to Caterham (maybe coffee stop here).
Go straight through Caterham heading towards Godstone. Just past Kwik-Fit you see a pelican crossing and Tupwood Lane on the right. The segment start 150m up the hill by a sign for “Hill8View”. The segment finish is just after a triangle warning “cyclists 80m” sign. At the junction, turn right onto Tupwood Scrubbs Road.
The route home is to Gatton Bottom, up Markedge Lane and on to Banstead and Ewell. Maybe grab a coffee at Banstead.
