Big Ride Challenge: September challenges
There's still time to log some long rides as you discover new areas to ride
As we head into Autumn there's no need for your riding to slow down. Where ever you are in the world, this is a season of change, but come rain or shine there's no reason to take your foot off the gas. Get the right clothing, recharge your lights, maybe put some heavier tyres on and enjoy the autumnal colours.

For the cross a border challenge you can select a town, county, state or nation. This challenge is all about riding someplace you haven't been to before. When you cross your chosen border, why not take a picture of the sign and post it on the Big Ride Challenge Facebook group so we can see where your riding took you this month.
