audax

I've entered this with my 12 year-old: http://www.aukweb.net/events/detail/16-611/ It'll be his first audax and, whilst he's done 200k before, he's not done something like this. Last year's ride was a quiet route through east Yorkshire but this appears to be villages and busier roads. I hope...

Audax Club Mid Essex (ACME) have our inaugural 100km Winter Series starting on 5th Nov 10AM Witham. Winter miles count double, right? Well here's the perfect opportunity to get some regular winter miles in - the ACME 100k Winter Series. Four monthly rides beginning in November. Essex 3Rs -...

It is nearly time for the annual Season of Mists audax event. At 105 km, it is slightly longer than its usual 100 km because it starts and finishes in Mytholmroyd this year, rather than in Hebden Bridge. That is actually A Good Thing because it gives us a few km on the A646 to warm up before...

I was out for a ride about 10 days ago and was crawling up a steep hill. The road was very narrow and there were multiple blind bends with trees obscuring views. There were also several cars going up (it's a popular area for walkers) too. About 20-30 cyclists came down the hill while I was...

It was tough! I completed the Penshaw Punisher (organised by Sunderland Clarion CC) Went off course a few times before the Garmin caught up on gps. Can't wait for the next one!

I’m beginning to start thinking/dreaming about my next challenge. Stepping up from my 334k ride. Probably next year. Possibly 400k. So maybe a 400k audax? Well, I’m not sure whether I’d want to do an organised Audax ... Potential benefits? Company on the road? I can live without that, as...

Blatant self-publicity, but I'm quite pleased with the route, and no one can dislike a trip to Masham for beer and pies, right? I test-rode it with a wheelmate, and he shared his thoughts on his very excellent blog: http://balancingontwowheels.com/2016/05/peculier-old-200/ There's a bit of...

Thanks to the gentle encouragement I was given when I was looking for ideas for longer rides I have taken a look at the Audax UK Website and found the perfect 100 km ride, starting and finishing in the village where my sister lives, so making logistics easier. The downside is that it means...

From the Organiser: Dorset Coast 200 (2 April) - tragic news "I hope you enjoyed your day out last Sunday. "Below is a link to photos of the Dorset Coast and Coastlet riders leaving Wareham Scout Hut, and riding out of Lulworth Cove...

I hoping to partake in a 110k audax in Norfolk soon and wondered what bike to use. Currently have a four year old specialized Allez - 16 speed, 23mm tyres - and a brand spanking 20 speed cx bike (11 - 34 cassette I think). If I put some decent road tyres on the cx (32 gators I was thinking)...

Only the 2 events this year both on the 9th July Golden Roads and Standing Stones 300km Hebridean Hundred 110km More details here: www.westernislesaudax.net

Some of us like to ride the Northwest Passage or Mini-Northwest Passage audax events and they are coming up soon so I thought I would give the events a mention here to jog memories. Littgull and I are tackling an extended version of the Mini-NWP as a forum ride and invite anyone interested to...

I have been discussing the Mini-Northwest Passage audax event with @Littgull. We fancy tackling it as a forum ride. We would sign up as usual and obey all audax requirements for the ride but we would agree in advance to meet up and stick together, rather than just forming casual alliances with...

On 12 June 2016, Islington Cycling Club will stage a 107km (67 miles) audax ride that starts and finishes in Finsbury Park. This ride is called The Italian Job, and it will have an Italian theme: café, food, style. The cost event £6 to £9 to enter. This is on the morning of the Finsbury Park...

The 2016 edition of The Great Escape audax will be on Sunday 15 May. This is a 200km ride that starts and finishes at Look Mum No Hands! and takes in lots of lovely lanes and villages in Essex, including the Knead Cafe at The Blue Egg in Bardfield. It costs £7-£10 to enter and you even get...

It's pronounced 'awdax'* for me, but I've just sat with three people who were discussing an 'owdax'** for next year. What do you think? * rhymes with 'raw flax' ** rhymes with 'cow backs'

Just put my entry in for the Wild Atlantic Way Audax hopefully I get in as I had a great time last year on the Mile Fáilte 1200 , I just have to hope real life or a lack of fitness don't get in the way .

Hi all, long time, no post. Sadly due to injuries, laziness and work commitments I have lost all fitness. I have found it hard to get back on the bike and any cycling time I do is with the kids, so I have concluded that I no longer need a road bike. I am picking up a brand spanking new Hybrid...

Ok so for those of you who have been following THIS thread the background to this is well versed – for the poor souls who are uninitiated the story goes thus: I decided 6 weeks ago it was about time I did an Audax. The notion had been floating around for a while but I was either not ready or...
