IT IS BACK, YIPPEE. The Kidderminster Killer is a classic audax that is challenging by reputation but very enjoyable to complete. Lots of Shropshire views across The Marches on route.
The 2021 route has been slightly changed to remind riders what hill climbing is like after the pandemic malaise. Outbound riders will head straight to Church Stretton before encountering The Long Mynd, after which it as a loop through Montgomeryshire including The Cwm and Fiddler’s Elbow. Upon arriving at Ludlow you could head for a Michelin Star restaurant if that is your sort of thing. Then the final stretch takes around the side of Clee Hill and back to Belbroughton. This is a stunning route but with lots of up and down along the way. Take time and enjoy the views.
