Autumn Epic
Event info
The Autumn Epic is a European-style cyclosportive, starting in Knighton in the Welsh Marches, and taking you through the superb scenery of the ancient county of Radnorshire. Entering its twelfth year, the Epic is an ideal way to round off your season and make great use of that summer fitness.
Radnorshire is near perfect cycling territory, with its unspoilt countryside and peaceful roads - you are in for a real treat if this is your first visit. You will be taken through some truly outstanding scenery, including: hills, lakes, valleys and moorland. The ride climbs from the first mile, and highlights include the Elan Valley mountain road, Glascwm and Abbey Cwm Hir climbs.
3 route options:
- The Classic - 150km tour of wild Radnorshire including mountain climbs and remote scenery
- The Short Cut - 130km and missing the big climb but otherwise a tough day out in central Wales
- The new 80km - takes int he first 40km of the Classic route then turns for home
Event features full support, food stops and electronic timing.

This feels a bit like chopping down trees to make way for a cycle track, I can't tell what to make of it. As we've seen on this site, house owners...
surprised they didnt blame the council for not gritting the road

EDIT - I wonder if this is coming from the realisation of "we can't drive through quickly now - because of those *other drivers*"? If so is it...
I've got the 900 lumen version of the front light. Even when the cam lever is closed properly, it doesn't grip the light well. The first one let...
