Two cracking rides over the long weekend. Friday: a hilly randonnée with amazing scenery, a pub stop and a pub finish. #cycling #bikeToot #bikeTooter #AudaxUK #AUK

@WilliamNB I’d be up for that if I can make the logistics work (I’m pretty much as far away as you can be from Plymouth in England!). Are there options for a slightly longer version? You’d likely get a much better uptake from the #AudaxUK crowd if there is a a 200km version.
I’m now officially a member of the #SuperRandonneur club #cycling #bikeToot #bikeTooter #AudaxUK #AUK

Done. Last 100km were a struggle but the tailwind helped. #cycling #bikeToot #bikeTooter #AudaxUK #AUK #SuperRandonneur https://strava.app.link/RiMHmoOqeCb

Tomorrow (and Saturday) I’m taking the final step towards #SuperRandonneur with this 600km ride to Lincoln and back. #cycling #bikeToot #bikeTooter #AudaxUK #AUK

I became an #audaxUK member a year ago today, 21 randonnées completed since, the longest a 400. Should have been embarking on a 600 this morning but made the sensible decision to postpone on account of the weather forecast for tomorrow. #cycing #biketoot #AUK

Yesterday: 100km audax from Sheffield to Newstead Abbey (Augustinian priory established c.1165, rebuilt late C13, extensively remodeled C19 - family home of the poet Lord Byron). Heat (28 deg C), hills and headwind made for a chewy first half and I never really bounced back. Is there a name for *that* tipping point on a bike ride, where you stop looking forward to it/enjoying it, and start wanting it to be over? Whatever, it came fairly early yesterday.

I rarely do selfies - as you will notice, they make me look gormless.
But it's all about the tee shirt.
Were you there?

Eight hours of glorious weather followed by a long soak. #NewForest #audax #cycling #velophant #BikeToot #audaxUK

Doing this ride soon. Just noticed the massive lump in the middle. I'm sure it'll be fine 🤪

Preparing 500g of cinnamon and pine nut rice cakes for tomorrow's New Forest audax, I always over-cater. #cycling #BikeToot #audax #audaxuk #NewForest #velophant

In the end I couldn't let those 3 rides in the bank go to waste, so I took the afternoon off to get the final piece of the puzzle done. The 3 Rs was enjoyed in gloriously sunny, albeit chilly weather.
Now I just need to get the ride validated and claim my ACME Anvil.
After today's ride, I've completed 3/4 of the ACME winter series. I missed the first one, the 3 Rs. It's available as a permanent ride, but sadly, I'm running out of winter months, as next weekend is already booked.
Still no ACME Anvil for me then, which most likely means it's gonna stay that way forever. Sadface.
Another early train, heading north this time. #AudaxUK #FridayIsRideDay #BikeToot

Paris-Brest-Paris, or #PBP, pre-signup is in. I can't really express how exciting this feels.
