Andy, George took the B run on 17th April. Here are his comments prior to the ride: I dropped by at Spetchley to make sure that they are happy to receive us on Sunday.

I'll take the A run to Edge Hill on 20th Sept, looping back to Kineton for the cafe stop at 'The coffee shop'. Route based on the one Paul Johnson used for the B run on 30th August - thanks Paul! Update... Instead of returning to Kineton for the cafe stop, I might head onto the National Herb centre....

Just the Hills of Cheshire Audax (Congleton CC) - 1st June
Hi,
Just wondered if anyone has ever ridden this event...or has entered? There is a longer one - 200km, and a flatter one, but thinking of signing up to the 110km hilly route.
