If you have not guessed already, this route goes to South Shropshire.
No expensive fees, no headline sponsors, no goodie bags, no numbers, no gold standard times, no broom wagons and no pretending at the finish to have looked into the jaws of hell and survived.
South Salopian is cycling at its best. It’s about a good distance in a day, riding at a sensible pace with good company, travelling through quiet and pleasant countryside in the orange glow of an autumn day before winter arrives.
Soak in the early autumnal colours of South Shropshire and The Marches. The ‘free-controls’ are located in three cafe rich and cake laden market-towns with plenty of opportunities to share a coffee with fellow audaxers.
Dusk will be at 18:30 and it is always a great idea to carry lights just in case of delay.
The new e-brevet app will also be availabe for proof-of-passage.
