What's your next Audax?

[Ming the Merciless]

So, what are the most important things that one needs to participate in an audax?

A bike and a sense of adventure and some grit and determination.

Wish they had grand audax tours of Wales

This is available as a perm and likely closest you will get for a GT Wales

Wish they had grand audax tours of England, as well.

You could try this 1400km perm

I'm down to ride Andy Berne's Border Nights 400 this weekend with son no. 2. Participation will be weather dependent.

Weather guaranteed

That's my concern. I don't need the 400 for PBP next year as I've already got a BRM one, so will be up there but monitoring.

Ah but you should never ride a 400 just for PBP. It must offer you more than that.

Morning, what I meant to ask was - Do you just show up on the day and ride the distance? Does one need an insurance to participate in the audax events in the UK or in general?

If I sign up as a temporary member, does Audax UK provide me with any cover as I’m confused about the word “limited” - does that mean I get covered onLy for the single event I’m trying to participate or ?

Also, are Audax UK & Cycling UK memberships different ? Should I register / subscribe for both, as Cycling UK seems to offer a lot more in terms of benefits, according to their website.
