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.
