Celebrating the legacy for cycling created by the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 starts from 05:45 in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

Riders will follow a 100-mile route on closed roads through the capital and into Surrey's stunning countryside. With leg-testing climbs including Box Hill and Leith Hill, and a route made famous by the world's best cyclists at the London 2012 Olympics, it's a truly spectacular event for all involved.

The sportive finishes on The Mall in central London, shortly before 150 professional cyclists race in the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey Classic on a similar route.

Given its huge popularity, RideLondon places are allocated via a ballot system. For 2020 the entry fee is £79 (an increase of £10), while for international applicants it's £109.

The ballot will remain open until 3 January 2020 or until 80,000 entries have been received. Results will be announced in early February.
