The Cambrian Classic Audax
Welcome to The Cambrian Audax!
Three challenging rides; starting from Herefordshire and heading west across the Cambrian Mountains then back. Stunning scenery, fantastic climbing and deserted Welsh roads await your cycling predilection.
The Cambrian 210km
Revived and reinvigorated The Cambrian Classic Audax, a stunning 210km ride into Mid-Wales and back. We have a new HQ in Leominster at Bridge Street Sports Centre to improve accessibility and transport links. Otherwise an unchanged route with controls at The Great Oak Café Llanidloes, Machynlleth and Llanidloes. An arduous but breath-taking ride with stunning views of the Cambrian Mountains and reservoirs.

12 corners in just over 2km is a terrifying prospect if it rains!

I used to go that way to work. It's nasty and congested. I doubt any changes will make the congestion worse.
