Blowingstone-White Horse 103km Audax	3*

Leader: Nick Dunton	Start Time: 9:30 am	Start Location: Village Hall Uffington
Description: Now in it's 5th year, this popular but tough 100km audax is organized by Cycling UK Wantage. Note the event is run under Audax UK regulations and there is a [small] fee payable if you want to ride. There will not be a led ride. While we hope to be able to accept entries on the day, it would help enormously if you can pre-enter via the Audax UK website, and pay via PayPal. That way, you also receive the route description ahead of time and can prepare, and we can ensure there is enough cake at the finish for everyone!
