Audax - ORWELL 200- Entries full.

Folks

Anybody thinking of doing this Audax event -

www.audaxireland.org/calendar/gazetteer/...linmeathkildare-200/

It would be good to see strong support from the club on it given that it is being organised by Dave.

Hi Fergal,

Definitely intend on doing it - good to support our own - fiar play to Dave for organising.

Danny

i will be doing it also - great idea!

Fair play for organising Dave. I'll do it too - keep Colm company :)

Dave I look forward for your company as we wait for the starters orders and then alas i will be alone again....naturally!!

Hopefully we will round up a crew for this one (weather being kind) and earn some audax points for the Club. Dave assured me it is a flat and fast route - we can only take his very honourable word on that one.

Looks like the ideal introduction to Audax for the uninitiated - I'm in! Thanks for organising it Dave.
Fingers crossed for a one day heat wave on 8th March...

Should be along for this. That's got to be the flattest 200 on the Audax calender I've every seen.

Hmm...200K in March...
Tempting!

Fergal, Dave et all,
Sounds like a good day in the saddle - for my first audax - please, count me in.

Hi.
Rodney and myself will take part . It will be a great day out.
Thanks Dave.
Regards.
Gerard.

Thanks for starting this Fergal and stirring up the interest.

I've designed this 200 first and foremost for my own benefit as a qualifier and ideal training for Paris-Brest-Paris . This means mostly flat and fast roads from town to town, which by happy coincidence makes it an ideal event for first timers to try their hand at. Navigation is straightforward, and there are plenty of options on route for food and drink.

Anyone who wants to enter will need to send me a copy of the entry form Link - I need that in advance as brevet cards need to be made out for each participant. You can e-mail me the completed form, post it to me, or drop it into Joe Daly's.

The price is €5, and as you might imagine at that price you are expected to be entirely self-sufficient. There will be mechanical support in case of an irretrievable breakdown, but otherwise once you get your card and routesheet at the start you are left to your own devices. Payment can made by cheque posted to me or cash dropped in to the shop.

There's already been a lot of interest from within Orwell, so hopefully there will be a good crew to make it a good social day out.

Hey, I hope to do this as my first Audax, flat and fast makes it sound so easy...

Thanks

Rebecca

Thanks Dave, didn't read it closely enough. Hope I'm better at reading the route map on the day :)

Sent in application. Looking forward to this .

I have just signed up for this too

Hi Im also up for this ! will apply now.

Thanks for all the interest in this, it looks like being a really good gang for it. I have just over 30 signed up now, most of whom are Orwell, with a few more in from Audax Ireland, Bray Wheelers, Naas and St. Tiernans.

Almost all of the Orwell riders will be taking part in their first Audax event, though they have a huge amount of cycling experience between them, so if anyone is wavering about taking the plunge on this one you can be assured you will probably never get a better opportunity to try out audaxing.
