Even More Rivers

11 June, 2017
Starting from Penzance
Organiser Martyn Aldis

308km Brevet de Randonneur, crossing the rivers Fal, Fowey, Lynher and Camel by ferries and bridges, large and small.

Based on the Many Rivers to Cross route but cutting out the trip to the Lizard and replacing it with a loop right around the high eastern flank of Bodmin Moor with long views across the Tamar Valley to Dartmoor (Weather permitting). An even fuller and tougher day out.

Note that this is an “X-rated” event, which means there are no manned controls or specific facilities. You attach commercial or ATM receipts to your brevet card for timed controls, and post it to the organiser after the event. No on-the-line entries.

Many Rivers to Cross

11 June, 2017
Starting from Penzance
Organiser Martyn Aldis

307km Brevet de Randonneur. A very substantial day out for the well‐prepared and self‐reliant randonneur. Crosses the rivers Fal, Fowey and Camel by ferries and bridges, large and small.

This follows the original Many Rivers route crossing the A30 at Four Winds. This crossing should be open by June but if the road scheme suffers further delays and the overbridge is incomplete entrants will be able to swap to Even More Rivers 300 or the Four Hundreds 200.

Note that this is an “X-rated” event, which means there are no manned controls or specific facilities. You attach commercial or ATM receipts to your brevet card for timed controls, and post it to the organiser after the event. No on-the-line entries.

Mines and Mineral Railways ON-road and OFF-road

25 June, 2017
Starting from Carharrack
Organiser Simon Jones

This popular Cornish randonnée is now in its 22nd edition in its familiar dual format – a 67km route on the tarmac for the roadies, and a 66km parallel off-road route for the mountain bikers, which is 90% off-road and has some technical bits. Both trace the now scenic industrial landscape of the Copper Kingdom and the Great Flat Lode, returning to the Carharrack hall twice with the option of enjoying a pasty lunch and a cream tea.

Order your choice of pasty and either rice pudding or scone with cream and jam by entering online at ukcyclist.co.uk/audax-events/61-mines-and-mineral-railways-2017 0r follow the instructions on the Audax UK site from the links below.
