I'm probably going to enter this audax at Hathersage in early march to judge my early season form - the 112km one. Anyone else fancy it? |

Does this mean you are going to be racing this year John?

Unless it's handlebar bag toting and cafe stopping form you're interested in, it might not be a very good assessment.
My mate Anton and I did Spring in the Peak a few years ago and finished first by about half an hour (despite cafe stop, wrong turns and not trying to "beat" anyone). Audaxes have a minimum time limit too so don't go too fast! Lovely route though, i might join you.

Does this mean you are going to be racing this year John? Maybe. But I don't do anything by half, so if I am fit enough and have enough time to train then I will. Adam - there is a minimum time? Just the length at 70 miles over very hilly terrain to test my legs. Let me know if you want to ride - only 4 quid. Will see if I can round up people from my home club on Sunday. |

Yes, you don't get your brevet card stamped if you finish too quickly. And then you won't get points towards collecting your randonneur badge! Audaxing is a funny old game.
I mgith be running a 10km that day but if not i'll do it for sure. Do you need to be a member of audax UK to enter though? (i was last time i did it).

This Hathersage audax sounds like fun: wonderfully and unnecessarily hilly, I might join you. I'll start growing my beard.
