Further Equinox

Further Equinox is inspired by the golden age of British cycling during the interwar years. In the 1920’s and 1930’s there was, like now, a great explosion of outdoors activity. Camping and touring was huge. There was ‘The mass trespass of Kinder Scout’ , the workers were revolting and taking to the landscape. The bicycle was a key to making this possible. Near the start of Further East is a group of huts that were built by London Cycling clubs as a stepping stone to the outdoors, away from London. People would ride up from London, sleep overnight and secretly race time trials at dawn, a lost weekend.
Like the old school time trials, riders need to be at the Further HQ the night before the start on the 26th, you cannot drive to the HQ ( there is zero parking ) and like the old days, riders set off at minute intervals from dawn. The rules are almost the same as British time trials. No drafting.
The ride is a fixed route that is mostly off road and as wild as East Anglia can give.
At the HQ there is camping and a bonfire, a place to leave your tent and a place to return to at any point in the lost weekend.
