| Blowingstone - White Horse Audax | 3* |
|---|
Leader:Nick Dunton |
Start Time:9:30 am |
Start Location:Uffington Thomas Hughes Memorial Hall |
Description:Now in it's 6th year, this popular but tough 100km audax is organized by Cycling UK Wantage. Note the event is run under Audax UK regulations and there is a [small] fee payable if you want to ride. There will not be a led ride. While we hope to be able to accept entries on the day, it would help enormously if you can pre-enter via the Audax UK website, and pay via PayPal. That way, you also receive the route description ahead of time and can prepare, and we can ensure there is enough cake at the finish for everyone! |

Riders:Alan DelaneyFrank Schroer Hugo Pile ian Goulding Jason Jones Jo Goulding Louis Hall Michael Brooke Nick Stokell Paul Jarvis Peter Cowan Philip Blampied Riders = 12 Report:As is traditional, the weather was perfect for this year’s Blowingstone-White Horse audax. Entries were down on last year, owing to several competing events on the same day: 76 riders entered, of which 69 started and 62 finished. Everyone seemed to enjoy the route and catering. We received a nice follow-up from Julie Rand, Volunteer Communications and Engagement Officer at Cycling UK, who has offered to include the event in the Challenge Ride Series next year. The financial surplus generated will be divided between our nominated local charities. Next year’s event will be held on May 10th. | ||
