I relatively recently moved to Bristol, so I'm looking for some recommendations for good rides to do as prep for LEL in the area. Here's what I know of so far. I'm partly writing this down as a list to make a bit more sense of it.
01/10/16 - Tasty Cheddar 100k (Bristol)
05/11/16 - Mr. Pickwick's Cymraeg Cyrch 200k (Tewkesbury)
03/12/16 - Kings, Castles, Priests & Churches 200k (Tewkesbury)
21/01/17 - Dr. Foster's Winter Warmer 200k (Cardiff)
Late March - Barry's Bristol Ball Buster 200k (Bristol) date tbc?
08/04/17 - Yr Elenydd 300k (Shrewsbury)
Late April - Brevet Cymru 400k (Chepstow) date tbc?
May - Bryan Chapman 600k (Chepstow) date tbc?
Wessex SR - I'm a bit confused as to whether these are now calendar events or not, I think they are - can someone confirm?
Hard Boiled 300k (Poole)
Dorset Coast 200k (Wareham)
Porkers 400k (Poole)
Brimstone 600k (Poole)
March - Gospel Pass 150k (Chepstow) I understand the organiser Nik has sadly passed away. I'd like to ride this as a perm at some point though, unless someone decides to pick the ride up next year.
I won't do all of these but I'm going to try to do an audax every month plus other riding. Have I missed any great rides nearby? I could do with something in for February. Bryan Chapman is the only one I've ridden previously. Closer is better but I don't mind travelling a bit for something like Yr Elenydd.
