CTC Cambridge Audaxes in 2026
On Saturday 11 July 2026 CTC Cambridge is organising a day of audax rides, in association with Audax UK. There are five distances to ride: 50km, 100km, 150km (which we'll extend slightly to 100 miles), 200km and 300km. Full details
CTC Cambridge Permanent Audaxes
We are developing a range of "permanent' Audax routes. These follow a predetermined (but advisory) route that visits a series of specified "controls" and are validated by Audax UK. You can go solo or with friends. Choose a date, enter the ride and then set off at any time you like.
See our current range of CTC Cambridge permanent audax routes.
What is Audax?
An Audax is a long-distance cycle ride that has to be completed within a set time limit, including any rest stops. It is non-competitive; the goal is completion. Audax rides may be from 50 km (32 miles) upwards, but generally the focus is on rides of 200 km (125 miles). See
Audax UK for more information on what's involved.
