This 18.29 km single-stage route runs about 41 minutes through Furzehill Road and out toward Elstree, covering speed limits from 30mph up to 70mph. It is one of the longest and fastest routes at Borehamwood, with 14 traffic signals and the rare inclusion of a marked U-turn point near Barnet Way.

Watch Out For

  • Seven roundabouts where you give way to the right and signal left on exit.
  • A 70mph stretch demanding confident lane discipline and mirror checks.
  • A school area near the School Zone with a reduced limit and children crossing.

Route Features

  • Nine right turns against five left turns, so most junctions need you to wait for oncoming traffic.
  • Fifteen give-way and roundabout points along Ripon Way and beyond.
  • Marked cycle lanes shared with the carriageway.

Key Tips
