Depends how rough you mean. A lot of that section is more grassy (or at least you can easily ride alongside the stony bits). Obviously I was doing it the other way so am just trying to remember - I think the climb up onto the Downs after Alfriston is a bit rough, after that it's not bad - definitely better than the bits after Worthing. The last 10k or so might be a bit rough, but you could always detour off diagonally to Worthing if it gets bad.

If your heading west everything from Eastbourne to Alfriston Is a bit rough but the rest is fine and running really fast at the moment. I once rode from Washington to Eastbourne on a bmx for charity which wasn't much fun. If you don't hammer the downhills you should be fine. And at least it should be sunny 😁

Likely doing about 60k from Eastbourne this Saturday then detour down to finish at Worthing, any particularly 'rough' bits along that section that I should look out for? My left hand/wrist doesn't like bumpy stuff, my off-road experience is nil and I'm doing it on a restored 90s 26er with rigid forks, just wondering how fucked I'll be by the end of it...
