Now is your last chance to enter this years Autumn Epic, as online entry closes at midnight on October 1.

The Autumn Epic is a European-style cyclosportive, starting in Knighton in the Welsh Marches, and taking you on a grand tour of the ancient county of Radnorshire. Entering its tenth year, the Epic is an ideal way to round off your season and make great use of that summer fitness.

Radnorshire is near perfect cycling territory, with its unspoilt countryside and peaceful roads - you are in for a real treat if this is your first visit.

You will be taken through some truly outstanding scenery, including epic hills, lakes, valleys and moorland.

The ride climbs from the first mile and highlights include Abbey Cwm Hir, the Elan Valley mountain road - a testing climb that rewards you with a breathtaking descent around the Elan Valley reservoirs - and the 20-25% ramps around Glascwm pitch.

The riders will benefit from motorcycle outriders, electronic timing, a full 155km route or a shortened 130km, two food stops, free Autumn Epic bidon, photos available for purchase online after the event, broom wagon and a free hot meal after the event.
