Randonneur 5000
COVID INFORMATION
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.
The Randonneur 5000 award is intended for those who ride the various long-distance cycling events promoted by the Audax Club Parisien.
On the list, you will find the Paris Brest Paris Randonneur which is already a big achivement. But for many riders, the required 1000 km brevet represents the biggest challenge.
