Here are the details of my next audax, albeit this is a Droitwich CC event. All riders welcome. There are several Beacon riders already.

You've guessed right, Hay Skivers goes to Hay and is ideal for those skiving and seeking an extended Coronation Weekend.
The route heads out via Clee Hill to Ludlow before a gentle section to Hay. It is then up and over the Black Mountains via Craswall or Gospel Passes. After which it is a scenic ride over the lumps and bumps of Herefordshire and hills just to the west of the Malverns. It is an x-rated event but riders will find plenty of camaraderie and cake on route.
The event is x-rated but is a great one for camaraderie and cake stops.
