He's probably either referring to the HoP in regents park, where you do as many laps as you can in an hour, or the 3 lap challenge in Richmond park, which is 3 laps as quick as you can.
I need to get more miles in too. Been about 6 months since I've actually gone over about 30 miles in a go and it shows.
You can try taking people's routes from Strava or whatever and just do them at whatever pace you like until you get faster.
Personally, I don't get any time to cycle during the week while working evening/night shifts so I've bought a turbo to build fitness during the week then go for longer rides at the weekend.
