What is Audax and How to Get Involved? 🚴♂️ Audax cycling, also known as randonneuring, is all about long-distance, non-competitive rides that test your endurance and self-sufficiency. The term "audax" comes from Latin, meaning "bold" or "courageous," perfectly capturing the spirit of these challenging events. Originating in France, audax events, or brevets, emphasise the journey and personal achievement over competition. Riders follow a set route and must finish within a time limit, but there's no race to the finish line. Results are listed alphabetically, not by who finished first. Ready to take on the challenge?
