Audax explained | All you need to know about the self-supported, long-distance cycling discipline

Audax explained | All you need to know about the self-supported, long-distance cycling discipline

In today’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, digital writer Jack Evans and technical writer Oscar Huckle are joined by long-distance cycling doyenne Eleanor Jaskowska. Eleanor is an expert randonneur, having completed the 1,200km Paris-Brest-Paris audax on a fixed-gear bike in 2019. She is also the founder of the School of Rocks, a women-led off-road cycling community. Oscar recently rode a 300km overnighter, so both are well-equipped to tell you all you need to know about audax. After explaining what an audax is and how to enter an event, Jack, Oscar and Eleanor chat randonneur awards, brevet cards and ‘audax hotels’. Eleanor and Oscar share their recommendations on routes, packing, nutrition and hydration. They also discuss tech and bike setups. Eleanor suggests how to prepare for an epic ride such as the 1,000km Mille Cymru audax she completed in preparation for Paris-Brest-Paris. Although audaxes can be arduous, Eleanor urges you to try out what she believes is an unmissable cycling experience. https://www.bikeradar.com/features/routes-and-rides/audax/ Learn more about your ad choices.
