Title: R 25000 core brevets.

O have just been looking at the AUK site. List is "PBP, fleche, 1000k and another BRM event of over 1300 km".
I was under the impression that LEL (1200) could be counted.

LEL = 1400km (when I rode it - longer next time)

This page - https://www.audax.uk/awards-pages/brevet-awards/ - has the requirements listed as -

"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."

Not sure why the last sentence is there. Now seems to be a strange time to be claiming for rides you did over twenty years ago.
