Start is at Crawley, takes in a couple of the hardest climbs I did last year and goes over Box Hill (not difficult).

Any takers?

I'd go for the half distance. It's more appropriate training for the short races I compete in Laughing

. Also, 56 miles presents fewer opportunities to miss an turning than 113 miles.
