FURTHER - Equinox - East of EnglanD

25th to the 28th September 2025

Arrive 25th September for Dawn Start on the 26th September 2025

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.
