I can't make it this year but if anyone is considering it, it's a great day out.
Good routes, well organised and great food at the end to look forward to!

This is a local event to me but have not ridden if for a few years now. So I have entered.

It is an excellent route and a well organised event. Out of the few 200km audaxes I have ridden during my life time, it is also one of the easiest and a great entre for anyone considering this distance.

I'm in for the 100 klicks outing for my first Audax and looking forward to it!

It certainly is a great day. I need to get round to entering this myself. It's a shame you're not doing it this year: perhaps we could interest you in the Kidderminster Killer instead?
