Overview
In memory and to celebrate the birthday of Jon Banks, a much-loved friend and cycling companion in Audax Club Bristol and across the Audax Community, who died suddenly in 2025. Based on Jon's Chalfield Challenge, but renamed to honour his Two Buns Banksy nickname from when he bought a double selection of cakes on PBP 2015.
We roll east from Bristol along the edge of the Cotswolds before heading south into glorious North Wiltshire countryside. Your challenge at the Broughton Gifford village hall control is to eat two of something! The event is £1 to enter, with riders encouraged to donate in Jon's memory to the British Heart Foundation.
What others think.
Fantastic
Brilliant ride , fantastic route great controls , Another Fab A.C.B event
Another ACB blast
Typical ACB , great route and organisation…great company too. Only complaint was the sheer volume of potholes, in fact I think you call it a pothole festival or a convention. Some of them were older than some of the rocks we passed in Avebury or Stonehenge.
My first 200k
What a great event! If you’re thinking of making the step up to a 200k, or a seasoned hand I would recommend this route to you. Some amazing views, plenty of pleasant lanes, great control/eating stops and a good tour of Britains neolithic past!
Go ride it!
Wow, what a day and what an eclectically diverse bunch.
What an utter privilege to have had this event made available to us, put on to give us something to do, and to have been able to turn out on the day. An extraordinarily creditable testimony to all parties: those who are no longer with us, those who press on in the face of grief soaked memories, those who support quietly in the wings and all the 140(ish) participants who can now spread the word of an outstanding event. Oh yes, not a bad effort with the weather Will; despite acknowledging that it is beyond your control.
Fabulous first Audax experience
Excellent route and great camaraderie. Lovely Cotswold village stops and countryside. Lucky with the weather too – a prefect day of cycling. 🙏🚴🏽♀️
