What a great day on the bike! This year’s Wadebridge Coasters Annual Audax, Follow the Mordros did not disappoint. The weather was perfect the atmosphere was friendly and the event was well organized.
Coffee was provided at the start to send us on our way through the challenging Cornish landscape.
There were plenty of scenic stretches that kept the miles interesting. The Cornish countryside never disappoints.
The checkpoints provided an array of cakes and other goodies that catered for everyone (my favorite had to be the lemon drizzle cake). The atmosphere throughout the day was welcoming and the controls provided a genuine sense of community.
The biggest climb of the day came at 90 km into the route and was challenging but with the help of the riders around us giving encouragement, we made it to the top feeling like we had achieved the impossible!
The audax finished at The Ship Inn Wadebridge where we got to celebrate our achievements or drown our sorrows.
