For information purposes, if you've just ridden PBP check your results sheets in relation to AUK brevet awards. You might now be eligible to claim the Brevet 5000/25000 awards:
Brevet 5000: "The B5000 requires a Randonnée of 1200 km or more, a Super Randonneur series, 1000 km, 24 hour team ride, plus other events to a total of 5000 km, all BR or BRM, all ridden within a 4 year period."
Brevet 25000: "The B25000 award requires a Paris-Brest-Paris or London-Edinburgh-London, another event of 1300 km or over, a 1000 km, a 24 hour team ride, three Super-Randonneur series, plus any BR or BRM events to a total of 25,000 km, all ridden within a 6 year period. Events prior to 1991 are not accepted."
I'm not sure whether the AUK results system will automatically identify eligible riders.

:thumbsup:
My spreadsheet tells me that subject to validation I've got B5000 and am a years SR and a 1300+ short of B25000
I've also got it calculating the ACP R5000 and R10000 awards
I should have just ticked the final box for ACP R5000, and am a second 1000, a LRM 1200+, a further 1700 ACP homologated km and a Super Randonee (erm...) short of ACP R10000
This is likely to drive my plans for the next couple of years.
-
Might be a bit early, but I've a North of England Super Randonnee planned (starting at Hexham). I just need to collect the photies and get it approved.
-
For the B5000, if you have done PBP and LEL, do these count as =>1200km and 1000km? Or do you have to ride another 1000km event?

Ideal, gives me time to lose enough of the spare tyre...
I'm also hoping that it being in the North of England means there's some good high speed descents in there, as by the sounds of CETs Welsh one the descents are mostly as nadgery as the climbs.
-
Completing PBP has got me my 2nd Brevet 5000, just waiting for validation so I can make a claim, I need a Randonee of 1300k or more for my 2nd Brevet 25000 & completion of a 3rd Brevet 5000, roll on next season.
-
Seems I qualify for two B5000 awards :) Last year I got my first 1000km homologated and with LEL and an arrow in 2017 would make the first (that I should have claimed last year, I hope it is not too late?) And this year, 2nd 1000km with PBP and arrow in 2018.
Somewhat related: can I claim the ACP5000 now, then ride a Super Randonnée next spring and claim ACP10000 (given the above rides)? Or are PBP and LEL "wiped of the slate" so to speak once I apply for the ACP5000 award?
-
You can use the same rides to claim both ACP awards.
-
Is it me, or has info on the ACP awards been removed from the AUK website under the refresh? I can't seem to find them.

https://www.audax.uk/results/randonneur-brevet-multi-season/
but I cannot see how to claim the awards
-
It is unclear from the website and the regs if multiple SR series from the same year can be included in the Brevet 25,000 award.
Regs say: (viii) Brevet 25000: within a six year period, events comprising 3 Super Randonneur, PBP or LEL,
an event of 1000km or more, an additional event of 1300km or more, a 24 hour team Arrow and
other BR, BRM or RM events to bring the total up to at least 25,000 km.
for the Ultra Randonneur award it is explicit that only one SR per year counts towards it:
(vii) Ultra Randonneur : riders completing ten Super Randonneur series shall be eligible for the
award of Ultra Randonneur. Only one series per year counts. The series do not have to be
consecutive
Does anyone have any experience / knowledge of this?
-
I got the B25000 back in 2012.
I'm not going to try for a second.
-
Thanks for sharing, Andy. You’ve made me realise that finishing the West Highland 1000 last year was what I needed to complete a Brevet 5000. I’d never aimed for this award as the logistics of a 24 hour team ride were difficult, but managed a York Arrow in 2017 and PBP in 2015 all the pieces come together. 👍
-
so how/where does one make a claim?

I think I've got an SR if I can be bothered to validate my Belgian ride with AUK. Do I need to email the organiser to get a 'validation code' or something? I'm not super fussed but it would be nice to sew the patch onto my Barley. And the ride was the hardest I've done in my life (much harder than my UK 600) so actually writing up this post has made me more minded to do it...
edit; emailing the controller now

Randonneurs BE publishes homologation numbers, if you can't find it on the website, email them for the URL. Then email the link to recorder@ and wait. There's a lot of riders doing overseas events, so the recorder has quite a backlog. They get added eventually, but it takes a while. Alternatively, when you get the brevet card back, send a cope of both sides, with the ACP sticker on it, to recorder.
J
-
cheers I think I've got the brevet card somewhere which I kept for sentimental reasons because the ride was so type 3! but hopefully a link to the results page from randonneurs.be will suffice.
-
So the homolgomation no. has a cell on the finishers' PDF but it isn't obvious to me (???)
Has the formatting of the spreadsheet made it unviewable? Might have to email Luc to get it if so.

Assuming you're the one AUK member on that list, your homologation number is 155996.
Email recorder@ with the above link, mention the homologation number, and also include your AUK membership number.
Then wait... Current wait time seems to be upwards of 3 months.
There is also an online form now: https://www.audax.uk/forms/overseas-event-claim-form I've not used it yet.

-
Fab that's me. I am not very clever, I was looking for one number for the entire ride rather than an individual one next to my name....
Thanks! Form submitted. Would it be presumptious to buy the AUK badge now before validation? I've not got any audaxy badges or whatnot yet and it'd be a good one to have ;D
-
Fab that's me. I am not very clever, I was looking for one number for the entire ride rather than an individual one next to my name....
One number per human. Else it wouldn't work.
Eventually it'll show up in your AUK record as an OS400 "OVERSEAS 400", and there will be an AUK number to go with it.
If you think the ride was hilly enough to gain any AAA points, for that you need to email Ivan, there's a recent thread on here about how to contact him.

Just a bit more useful info' re the Brevet 5000/25000 awards. In addition to the SR/PBP/LEL/1000/arrow etc, you obviously need other events (only BRM for the ACP award) to make up the distance of 5000/25000. I've read somewhere that although you have to complete an Arrow/Fleche, you can't count the distance towards the 5000/25000 awards (ie - if you achieve 400 km/500 km riding the arrow, you can't count the 400/500 towards the 5000 distance). Happy to be corrected if wrong.
Andy Corless
-
Arrows do count towards total distance (Easter Arrow only for ACP awards) but I can't recall whether actual distance or min, arrow distance (360km) is counted.
-
I'd semi assumed it'd be points distance rather than distance ridden, so just like a 210 is 200km a 499km Arrow would count as a 400.
-
From http://www.audax-club-parisien.com/EN/382%20-%20RulesRandonneur%205000.html
"an approved FLECHE VELOCIO : The achieved mileage is used (360 km minimum of 24 hours)"
Effectively the distance is rounded down to X00km distance, since virtually everything else is counted as X00km. The only exceptions are the Fleche de France, which count towards the ACP's R10000. In that case, combining the actual Arrow distance ridden with the actual Fleche de France distance might push the total over the next X00km increment.

What goes up must come down! ;D Its difficult in 600km of maximised ascent to avoid a couple of dodgy lanes, although generally surfaces in Wales are good. On the plus side, the descent into Llanberis is a scorcher...

I always assumed a homologation number would uniquely identify one particular ride, but it seems ACP re-uses numbers :facepalm: #125863 is my ride of The Border Raid last July, but it is also a 400km brevet done in 2017 by one Alan Santos.

Wait, how does that work?!
Does each Brevet have it's own number? Making the homologation number + Brevet number making a unique key? Or it unique only per year?
J
-
ACP has the same (consecutive) numbers for each distance (each series starting from 0001). Including the distance information should make them unique but I recall something about each four year cycle (around PBP) recently. Others will know more about this.
-
yes, when I put my numbers in from last year for pre-reg I was given the choice of me or some norwegian who'd done a 600 in 2014.
It seems to know who you are after that point though.
-
Presumably claiming these awards is dependant on official results from PBP which will not be out until January judging by last time.

Good point - it's been added.
But please note the best way to make these observations or to request minor changes is to mail them to webcontent@audax.uk
-
I note that the AUK Brevet 5000 was last updated in May 2018; is that because no one's claimed it since or just not been updated?
I submitted my claim for that to the recorder a few weeks ago but haven't heard anything yet.

I submitted my claim in September and haven't heard anything - as upthread - I met the requirements without realising and have too many other things on my plate to chase.

We noticed the "last updated" on the Brevet 5000 while doing the other changes and have asked the recorder for more recent information. As soon as we have it the page will be updated.

Still unchanged. I know I have completed the 5000 award rides, does the lack of my name on this list stop me buying the badge?

I sent my claim form off ages ago but heard nothing back, not sure whether to prod the recorder or not.

Still heard nothing. Used the membership survey as an opportunity to ask a question.

Getting my Brevet 5000 during lockdown feels a little like Chris Froome winning the 2011 Vuelta from his hospital bed. ;D Although, technically, he rode less distance in the 2011 Vuelta.

Yeah Dan e-mailed be yesterday to confirm my 5000

Just a heads up. As per usual, if you've just ridden the LEL check your results sheets in relation to AUK brevet awards as you might now be eligible to claim the Brevet 5000/25000 awards:
Brevet 5000: "The B5000 requires a Randonnée of 1200 km or more, a Super Randonneur series, 1000 km, 24 hour team ride, plus other events to a total of 5000 km, all BR or BRM, all ridden within a 4 year period."
Brevet 25000: "The B25000 award requires a Paris-Brest-Paris or London-Edinburgh-London, another event of 1300 km or over, a 1000 km, a 24 hour team ride, three Super-Randonneur series, plus any BR or BRM events to a total of 25,000 km, all ridden within a 6 year period. Events prior to 1991 are not accepted."
I'm not sure whether the AUK results system will automatically identify eligible riders.

It never used to automatically detect multi year awards, so I expectt it still won't.
I know I qualify for B25000, and also ACPs R10000, just waiting for the official LEL results to send my form off.

Do DIY's could for the Brevet 4000? Tallying all my DIYs and BRMs now, 21x200 in 2022 (so far ;D all DIY), 26 in 2021 (all DIY) and 22 in 2017-2019 (BRM)
I should qualify for a 2nd Brevet 5000, but fall short on the 25k (damn those covid years)

Yes DIYs doubt exactly the same for all AUK awards
-
I take it “four years” means four seasons? i.e you couldn’t combine a 2023 Easter arrow with a 2019 PBP?
-
Normally taken as that but ACP have added extra time for their awards to compensate for the C19 restrictions. I can't actually recall whether I have claimed multiyear AUK awards within 4x365 days but over 5 seasons.
-

I think it's rolling, the claim form includes "date of first event" and "date of last event", also from the R5000 page
HOW TO EARN THE AWARD :
The rider must complete the qualifying events listed below within a four-year period (to the day) : – a full series of ACP-sanctioned 200, 300, 400, 600, and 1000 km Brevets de Randonneurs Mondiaux,
But regardless, from the acp website
The Audax Club Parisien executive committee decided on June 7, 2021 to take into account the various health protocols that have been applied for over a year. So, the deadline for obtaining this award will be extended by 2 years, but only for those who have approved the 2019 PBP.

Ah thanks! I guess that means I have enough points for the 25k award after all! The "plus any BR or BRM events" in its description threw me off, I figured this ment only "official" events.
I'll wait until LEL has been processed (that must be a huge job!), then send our kind Recorder an email :)

pretty sure DIYs come under BR events (unless they are less than 200km , in which case they are BP)
also there is a link to a claim form on this page https://www.audax.uk/results/achievement-awards/brevet-awards/ "claimed" in first para, it's a word template not an online form.

I reviewed my calculations and I'd missed out 2 years of distance in that part.
So I'm the 1300km short of it...
I'm not doing PBP this year, I may just have to drop my first audaxing years 4000km as I forgot to plan in a week off work to have a crack at it. Still I only need another 1300km on top of the last 5 seasons for that and I'm planning to do Andy Berne's 1000 and it's a reasonably gentle 288km home from Brampton.

Speaking of awards, what's going on with the yearly trophy stuff? My missus and I only rode all those AAA events last year because I promised her trophies! :D
Do AUK no longer do an awards night?

Do AUK no longer do an awards night?
when this was raised at the beginning of the year, there was a suggestion that an awards night would be organised "sometime in the spring, in the southeast"
Nearly June now, so it looks like it might not be happening until the autumn. Which could mean I could a 100points in a season award to my Brevet 25,000.
Personally I think the date of any awards night should be fixed sufficiently far in advance so that people can plan their event dates accordingly (both organisers and riders)
Congrats on your AAA points for last season, amazing effort.

I suspect its more a case of not making a decision, no one actually decided awards night should be scrapped, but also TPTB did not decide on a date and venue.

When I think that means 25,000km of events ridden it seems ridiculous.
-
If one does 2x200, 2x300, 2x400, a 600 and a 1000+ in a season, well obviously it is at least a SR and a SR2500, but is it 2xSR and a SR2500?

It's 2 SRs but there's no official recognition (except in your results list) of multiple SRs in one year, you'll just be an SR - You will get the other awards.
There used to be an unofficial list (created by Francis) of 'Hyper SRs' - meaning those who gained SR status with just 600s & above. But it seems to have got lost in the move to the new website.

Random fact: I was motivated to gain a hyper SR by Jack Eason who usually qualified for PBP with 4x600s.

My ultra randonneur award has arrived today. Thank you very much Pete.

I would have thought an engraved AUK tankard would be nice for getting to 30xSR, maybe an AUK labelled tea-mug for 20xSR.
Crivens, what's wrong with just claiming a 2nd/3rd cloth badge?

That gets a bit boring, don't you think? Even 5xRRtY and 10xRRtY get a different cloth badge to the plain RRtY. 30 years of SRs sounds like it might be worth a little more than a £1 badge.
-
Ok Ok different cloth badges?
I'm dissapointed that some awards are metal badges without cloth badges.
I may over value cloth badges, I'm used to seeing metal cups, plates and glass trophies as clutter, dad got to the point of storing them in the spare saab 96 shell in the driveway, like what am I going to do with a second randonneur 10k if I ever do it?
At least the crampon and tin of spam are to be returned

If one does 2x200, 2x300, 2x400, a 600 and a 1000+ in a season, well obviously it is at least a SR and a SR2500, but is it 2xSR and a SR2500?
It's 2 SRs but there's no official recognition (except in your results list) of multiple SRs in one year, you'll just be an SR - You will get the other awards.

I've looked at that a couple of times, in PBP years where I have had a 1200 plus 2 x600, but am thinking of giving that a proper go next year. Have warmed Mrs CET to the idea. Just waiting for the calendar to evolve to decided which ones.
-
Thought I was going to be Hyper this year, but then failed to complete London Lands End and PBP, so just ended with 3x600s. I suppose I could still do a DIY600, but time is running out. (Days will soon be shorter than nights)

I think its here http://www.aukweb.net/results/detail/this/srh/ [Edit - by changing "this" to the relevant year in the url gets details for prior years, just tested it for my 2010 HSR ;D]
Though how easy it is to navigate to from scratch I honestly dont know. I found it through this thread - > https://yacf.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=7466.msg2424035

It's not linked anywhere now. Here's another page no longer linked - 100s of photos. http://www.aukweb.net/resources/gallery/

(earlier this evening) Postal services at the door, with a smal parcel. I don't expect any parcels but yes, that is my name and address ???.
Inside two lovely plastiques: Randonneur 10000 for 2022 and a Brevet 25000 that I claimed just shy of a year ago. Really cool, I didn't know there were actual physical awards to be earned!
Now, for 2023 I already have 10k points validated and once the PBP homologation is official I also meet the requirements for my 2nd Brevet 25000 :thumbsup:

I love it when the recipients weren't expecting anything. I had the pleasure of delivering a Randonneur 10,000 by bike last week and the chap looked a bit shell shocked. Don't think anyone had knocked on his door for weeks.
There are physical awards for Randonneur 10,000; Randonneur 100,000 and Brevet 25,000 too. The first of these is awarded automatically while the latter two have to be claimed, and these trophies are only made well after the end of the Audax season in which they're claimed so there can be quite a delay. Ordinarily they would be presented at the Reunion and only a few would need to be delivered by post/bike or over a curry. Lucy McT has a couple in hand for the Northern Reunion, too.

I should follow up, since I was nagging about it. A while back we received, what I assumed was another beer order I'd forgotten making, but was in fact our quite hefty, his'n'hers, AAA trophies!

So, thanks AUK.

I didn't realise you were a couple until I'd packaged up both trophies and printed the address labels. Could have saved AUK a few pounds if they were combined but it was too late by then!

Haha sorry about that (you could've filled the other box with beer). Pretty sure we are joined/registered as a "family", because we only get one copy of the magazine but I guess it's maybe not that common to get a double act like this? I'm pretty sure it won't happen again (at least not by us!). Thanks for the trophies anyway - they look very cool.
