Description

Tackling the Malverns before breakfast. To & through the Forest of Dean for lunch. And an afternoon in the Severn Vale. Fine views throughout ride. This permanent is identical the calendar event which is rapidly establishing itself as an early spring event. It is proving to be very popular with both riders that wish to keep their points tally ticking-over, and those that are AAA points chasing. The AAA bit comes early in the ride, so there's plenty of time to recover, and make good progress on easy roads/lanes for the finish of the ride. Good quality controls used throughout, all have experience of handling AUK events, hot and cold food available at each control. A few km of off-road sections (either NCRs or SUSTRANS aproved, and these can be avoided if wished). Only one major urban complex on the ride, and this is passed-through virtually traffic-free. GPS routes and comprehensive event details supplied to all riders, free all day parking - by prior arrangement.
