Audax Randonneurs is pleased to return to the Lido Hotel after a long absence for our October 200km BRM.

A reminder that these Audax rides must be considered private excursions and you are merely provided with a route to follow.  You ride the route entirely at your own risk, are responsible for your own safety and to make your own arrangements in the event that you have any mechanical or medical problems.

Entry fee: AudaxSA is a non profit organisation and entry fees reflect this.  The entry fee for this event is R150.  The entry fee provides you with the following:

• Printed brevet card
• Printed map and cue sheet
• GPS route file
• Homologation of your brevet card
• A medal

Route: The route is still being finalised, but is likely to be similar to the map below.  With the final instructions, you will receive a PDF route map & cue sheet and a link to RideWithGPS where you can download the final GPS route.  You will also receive a printed route map and cue sheet at the start venue.

Covid-19 specifics:

2. Maintain distancing at check in and at the start.
3. Please ensure that you wear a mask or buff at all times as required by Covid-19 regulations, except while engaged in vigorous exercise.
