Audax UK

Audax UK is an organization that promotes long-distance cycling events, known as audax or brevets. These are officially measured and timed rides, typically ranging from 200 to 600 kilometers, designed to challenge riders' endurance and planning skills. Participants follow a set route, with designated control points for rest and refreshment, and aim to complete the ride within a specified time limit. Audax UK emphasizes enjoyment, personal achievement, and camaraderie rather than competition. The organization sets the rules, certifies rides, and provides resources to support cyclists of all levels in exploring long-distance cycling safely and responsibly.
