Skiving Cyclists

Post by Philip Whiteman » 28 Feb 2022 11:41

Hello.

In addition to the two Beacon Audaxes in the summer, I am also running a pair of Friday 20th May for Droitwich CC. You will be than welcome to enter. Both events are x-rated (cheap and cheerful) and cost just a few pound to enter for a day that is priceless.

PART TIME SKIVERS - 112km

Bewdley - Ludlow - Church Stretton - Ludlow

It's lumpy but not a horrendously long distance. For the most part, the route uses good quality C roads through South Shropshire crossing Clee Hill, Wenlock Edge (twice), through the two cwms either side of Caer Caradoc and around the side of Brown Clee.

HAY SKIVERS - 209km

Bewdley - Ludlow - Hay on Wye - the Black Mountains - Ledbury - Bewdley

This route went down a storm last year. The passage over either Craswall or Gospel Passes is obviously a stiff challenge but it is really the route back through Herefordshire that tests people's metal along with a finale on Ankerdine. The roads are quite and the scenery is pastoral.

It is now a month to go until the Skivers!

Hay Skivers is filling nicely but plenty of places remain available on Part Time Skivers.
