The photographer was keen to follow all weekend but... at professional photographer rates, that probably would have blown the budget for the whole issue. Shame cos it meant no night-time shots but he followed until a bit past Chalgrove so got a decent selection of pics.
The best thing, though, is that he really got a taste for it himself - he is a cyclist but has never tried anything on audax scale before, but he's quite keen to try one now. I've recommended some rides for him.
And hopefully it will be good exposure for AUK too, along with the coverage of PBP in Cycling Plus (even though they're arch rivals in professional terms, it's a decent mag with a good readership, so it's great they're getting into audax too).
