Bike & Bakes Part II
2nd Part Of our Bike & Bakes Series.
Audax Style Revival Series – Ride 2: “Chasing Horizons”
Now that your legs are warmed up, it’s time to stretch the limits.
Ride 2 takes things up a gear — different routes, different location, a few more hills, and a whole lot more adventure. This is where the spirit shines through.
Expect breathtaking views, rewarding challenges, and the camaraderie that only comes from sharing the journey. Every mile brings new stories, new friendships, and the satisfaction of pushing beyond your comfort zone.
🌅 It’s not just about distance — it’s about discovery.
Let’s chase those horizons together.
What is bikes and Bakes?
Saddle up for a day of adventure, cake, and good company! The Bike & Bake rides are low-cost, high-fun cycling events that celebrate the joy of exploring on two wheels.
Forget about following arrows — this is a ride for true adventurers! You’ll navigate using your inner explorer’s compass (plus the provided maps and GPX routes, of course) to follow beautifully optimised routes through stunning scenery.
Instead of standard feed zones, you’ll visit unique control point cafés, where you can stamp your souvenir rider card and refuel with delicious food, coffee, and plenty of smiles.
At the finish line, your efforts are rewarded the best way possible — with a free slice of cake and a freshly brewed tea or coffee to celebrate your ride.
While we do have emergency support on hand, riders are encouraged to handle their own roadside repairs. Need a hand? No worries — we can come to your rescue for a small fee or get you safely back to the event centre.
