This is the Perm version of the
Budworths 100
Calendar ride. You can ride it using the
e_Brevet app
or using traditional PoPs, such as collecting till receipts. The Perm can be ridden on any date
except 24th March 2024
where it clashes with the Calendar version of this ride.
Just why Great Budworth and Little Budworth are so far apart (about 19km as the Audaxer cycles) is a bit of a mystery.
Great Budworth may be a picturesque village but it has the added feature of a cafe at the Icecream Farm, popular on a number of Peak Audax events. You should choose a start time and ride direction carefully. The cafe tends to open from 12-5pm. If you are on an
early start
, use eBrevet
MW45-1309-20240511
so that you'll get to Great Budworth after 76km. For a
late start
use eBrevet
MW45
as you'll reach Great Budworth after 31km.
Little Budworth is small (as the name might suggest) and quiet (that is unless there is racing going on at nearby Oulton Park).
The ride goes past the Anderton Boat Lift, which is one of the Seven Wonders of the Eaterways, so is worth a look.
The ride also passes the site of Whitegate Station, which has a useful cafe.
