TGV Cyclists are proud to present their very own Audax series for 2025. The series marks the 50th Anniversary of Iron Maiden and provides 4 rides aligning to some of the band's iconic songs.
All rides are scheduled for the last Saturday in the month from April through to July and are published in the Audax UK calendar events.
We run Audax rides as shoestring events so that we can keep the costs down. Refreshments and some light snacks will be available. Please note there is on street parking only and no toilet facilities at the start location.
All riders who complete all of the series rides in the required time are eligible for a special series finishers patch. Hopefully this will motivate some of you to ride further to achieve this award.
All Audax events are open to anyone (you do not have to be a TGV Cyclists group member). You must sign up with Audax UK (costs apply) and if you're new to audaxing, read read this.
