Here's a reminder that a unique cycling World Championship returns to Eastbourne tomorrow

07/08/2026

This Sunday Morning 9/8/26 from 9am

We have two Hillclimbs on closed roads along the seafront starting from Western Lawns opposite the Grand Hotel up Dukes Drive, Upper Dukes Drive and Beachy Head Road finishing by the car park by Cadence Cafe.

At 9am are the regular road race bikes (similar participants to our Butts Lane Hillclimb we run every October) and then the main event The Penny Farthings start at 10am. We are expecting to reopen the roads by 11.30am. In the past we have tried to keep the road open but as the event has grown the council have decided to close the road to traffic to ensure safety for the participants and the thousands of spectators this event is attracting.
