The Bec Hill Climb, hosted by the Bec Cycling Club, is a long-standing cycling event with roots dating back to 1956. Organized initially by Ron Beckett, it features a challenging climb up White Lane, a closed road near Limpsfield Surrey, leading off Titsey Hill. The event has become a local classic, attracting large crowds and featuring various categories for riders of all ages and abilities.

The Bec Hill Climb was one of Maurice Burton’s first ever races as a teenager, and Germain Burton took gold in 2010 and 2011. This is a very popular event and Team De Ver members will be there – if you enter we’ll cheer you on! After the event we may adjourn to Titsey Brewery, nearby.

The 2026 event will be held on Sunday 11th October in the afternoon. The Catford hill climb takes place on the same day in the morning, if you fancy a double-challenge!

Team De Ver is a member of CTT (Cycling Time Trials) so club members are able to enter this open event. Registration is now open on the the CTT website.

Entry limit: 120. Distance: 700 yards. Official course map here.
