NOTE: Brevets are long-distance cycling events 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 experience. 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, to comply with all traffic laws, to comply with the requirements of RUSA and NJ Randonneurs, including rules governing lighting and reflective clothing, to respect the rights of all other users of the route, and to plan for the possibility of your not being able to finish the ride.
During any event involving open roads, accidents, collisions and incidents can occur that may result in serious injuries and even death. Although we cannot eliminate the risks, you can click on the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BELOW (when available) for some recommendations on reducing them.
