I'd do Mark's ride. Probably train out and back though and use the spare time at the pub.
But there's also Hellfire or whatever that hilly Perm 600 is down south from Porkers guy.

Another option is this one - your usual Cotsworlds route NW out of London but then goes over all the lumpy / scenic stuff in Shropshire like The Burway etc, back near the Wrekin and through Ironbridge.
Very enjoyable and scenic though I ended up climbing The Burway at 1am due to numerous fuckups setting off. There's a Travellodge up by Shrewsbury if you stop.
Shares some DNA with Willesden's Last Gasp and that hilly 200 from Kidderminster iirc

@frank9755
I'm looking for a ride for a couple of weeks' time when I've potentially got up to three days.
First thought was to do London lands end London, which I entered but couldn't ride last year. But I'm not sure I could quite handle a solo 1000km. I've got a perm for Mark Rigby's hilly 600 round Wales so that's an option, + ride out to Tewkesbury and back on train.
Any other good 2-3 day ride ideas, ideally without having to drive or get hard to book bike trains?
@honk your 600 looks interesting. I'm on phone now but will have a proper look at it later.
