NOTE: Brevets are a long-distance cycling event for riders with experience riding on public roads. These events are NOT races! As organizers our goal is to provide you with a reasonably suitable route, some support, and information before and during the event to help you have a safe and successful day. However, the rides take place on public roads that are open to all traffic; therefore, we cannot eliminate all hazards or risks.
Your responsibility is to show up in appropriate physical condition for completing the event with a bicycle in good working condition, comply with all traffic laws, comply with the requirements of RUSA and NJ Randonneurs, including rules governing lighting and reflective clothing, respect the rights of all other users of the route, and plan for the possibility of you not being able to finish the ride. Although we cannot eliminate the risks, you can click on the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BELOW for some recommendations on reducing them.
