The Bryan Chapman Memorial Audax, something to do one weekend?

with No Comments

At a loose end one weekend? Fancy something a little different, less sporty than a sportive, less carbon on show but equally as challenging.

How about a long distance Audax? A chance to test your endurance and orienteering skills there are many throughout the year from 50K in length up to the mighty Paris-Brest-Paris a 1200K monster. If you want to know more about them then follow link to Audax UK website for history a upcoming events, there are some very challenging ones locally.

Look out for one near you shortly, the Fairies Fairly Flat on 21st of June is run from Bethersden and is one where the Club is well represented.
