Title: AUK 50th Anniversary 2025
Post by: Rupert on 20 July, 2022, 06:01:56 pm

I am led to believe that AUK will be 50 years old in 2025.  Although it is still 3-years away, does anyone know if there are likely to be any celebratory events planned for that year?

Probably go for a bike ride or something.  ;)

You'll have to wait until 2026.

Audax UK was formed in order to run the 1976 Windsor-Chester-Windsor as a PBP qualifier:

They will probably release a badge for some kind of point competition... earn 50 points and get an enamel medal. Don't expect fireworks or centrally organised events with all the frills...

We got green mudguard stickers in 2016! And a special medal!

You will get new stickers very soon, but general issue not 2022 specials! Actually that timing is probably about right for another order for 2026.
