Tips for the Rider
A Hilly Route! – This Black Forest route
traverses many rollers and succession of shorter hills, none of them very long
or steep, but adding up to around 9,000 ft. of total climbing.
Official Checkpoints – Please patronize stores used
for checkpoints.
Lighting – Remember that lighting and
reflective equipment are REQUIRED for the ambient light conditions of
the ride start. Lighting includes street-legal headlight and taillight.
Reflective equipment includes vest, ankle bands, and reflective material on
your bike.
Secret Checkpoints – Any brevet may have one or more
secret checkpoints along the route.
Finish – Leave your brevet card in
official vehicle, after having it registered and signing your card.
DNF – We do not sweep the course. If
you do not finish the brevet, you may leave a message on 303-604-1163. If official
vehicle is at the Park-and-Ride and you return there, you may leave your brevet
card there.
Rules and Waiver– Please review the Brevet Rules and sample Rider Waiver.
Not a Race – Observe traffic rules, ride
responsibly, … and have fun!
