What's your next Audax?

[ianrauk]

Its the Man Of Kent 200km Audax this coming Sunday so signed up for that. Including riding too and from the start/finish, it will end up being 270km's.
Fingers crossed. Weather looks very good for cycling.

Good grief, that's hilly. Do the rules allow extra time to complete?

 

[Ajax Bay]

No: standard 15kmph. The crux is the climb out of Abbotsbury: 110m in 700.
Very similar climb to last weekend's 200 in Devon plus a few miles west of the Tamar:

You are very fortunate to have access to so many great rides. Around here, it is flatter than an old joke and the scenery is as ugly as sin.

I hope to do half that Ringwood to Weymouth at Easter!

Looking at possible future events now I'm getting better. Whilst the usual Llanfair 400 isn't a possibility I've added as 'maybe':

1 June - The Red Rose 200 - https://www.audax.uk/event-details/calendar/12763-the_red_rose , although it clashes with the Selby 10 time trial

14 June - Velo Verde 200 - https://www.audax.uk/event-details/calendar/13019-velo_verde

Below removed as I nearly double-booked myself.
28 June - Morecambe Midnight Madness 200 - https://www.audax.uk/event-details/calendar/12764-morecambe_midnight_madness_randonneur

Morecambe midnight madness might be doable what time do you tend to get beck to Halifax.

@Jameshow - I've not done that ride before, but from memory it's about a 9-10 hour ride plus stops. I did a similar audax - https://www.strava.com/activities/9553955959 - in 2023 which was overnight and you need about 12 hours overall.

And I've just remembered - I'm heading to France on the Saturday for a week-long tour so I'd have to do the ride, then dash to Portsmouth for an evening ferry. Therefore I don't think that's happening.

Oh, right, in 12 days time - I was thinking that it couldn't possibly take 12 days to ride round Dorset!

The Kennet Valley Run 200 on Sat.

Heading due west for the first half. Then much swearing at the head-wind for the 2nd half.

At least it'll be bright and sunny. I hear previous editions have featured torrential rain and flooding.
