THE KIDDERMINSTER KILLER

Description

213km cycling event starting from Belbroughton, N Worcestershire. Controls at Church Stretton, Chapel Lane Village Hall, Ludlow and Belbroughton., plus 2 information controls.

The Kidderminster Killer deserves its reputation as one of the most challenging 200km audaxes in the country with its 28 climbs. However, you will be rewarded with great countryside, camaraderie and cake.

Lots of Shropshire views across The Marches en route. Outbound riders will head straight to Church Stretton before encountering The Long Mynd, after which it is a loop through Montgomeryshire including The Cwm and Fiddler's Elbow. Upon arriving at Ludlow you could head for a Michelin Star restaurant if that is your sort of thing. Then the final stretch takes you around the side of Clee Hill and back to Belbroughton. This is a stunning route but with lots of up and down along the way. Take time and enjoy the views. A good degree of fitness is essential. Care should always be taken when riding this route as it uses very narrow country lanes with hills and bends.
