The Beacon RCC February audaxes are an institution on the Audax UK calendar, attracting 260 entries each year. The routes use quiet country roads through rural Worcestershire to Evesham and Upton. A gritted alternative is also available if icy.

Our two February events, the Sunrise Express and the Snowdrop Express, are both 123km in length and they follow the same route, but travelling in opposite directions. The start times are staggered to give riders a choice and to ease congestion at the HQ.
