The Dug’s Heid 120km Audax
Audax UK, the UK's internationally recognised long distance cycling association, presents The Dug's Heid, an early season 120km cycling event starting from Falkand on Saturday 8th March.
About The Dug’s Heid 120km Audax
The route sets off for the Coast at Newburgh and runs along the north coast road to Tayport before turning south via the Tentsmuir road, StAndrews and Kingsbarns for Crail, continuing along the South Coast road for Largo before turning back inland and dropping back into the Howe from Cults Hill.
Limited facilities at start and finish.
Start time of 0830 and generous 12 hours to finish in.
The Dug's Heid 120 is organised under the regulations of Audax UK, the UK's internationally recognised long distance cycling association. Audax rides are non-competitive, and the emphasis is on self-sufficiency and enjoyment. If you are looking to try this form of cycling or thinking about what it might be like to ride 200km (125 miles) or more, this event is a good starting point.
The ride is recoded on a Brevet Card, which is used to prove that riders have completed the route, and list the places where riders should get a sticker, a receipt or answer a question to prove they were in the location.
There is a small surcharge for insurance for non-Audax UK members.
Please sign up in advance via the Audax website. Entries close on 10 October, or once the ride is fully subscribed. www.audax.uk/event-details/12752-the_dugs_heid_120M
Please note that Audax riders are expected to be self-sufficient, and the organiser provides no rescue service. You are expected to navigate yourself, using either the routesheet or a GPS track. If you are new to Audax, please read more on the website: www.audax.uk/about-audax/new-to-audax
Although it is 'suitable for children', it should be noted that it is for parents/guardians to determine whether their child has the skills, equipment and fitness to participate in a 120km cycle ride in Scotland at this time of year.
