Good morning,

If you are interested in an ACP 200 K, we kick off the season in KC on March 21st
Shawnee - Winchester 200 K 
7 am

If you are interested, EITHER please register on the KC site or drop me a note so that I have enough cards and cue sheets.  

2026 is a very important year for anyone remotely interested in Paris-Brest-Paris 1200 K in 2027.  Completing an ACP event in 2026 will allow you to move up your registration date and greatly decrease your anxiety about getting into the event.  


Ride lots,
Spencer

PS:  A note from my buddy Ron H. in Seattle on the purpose of a 200 K.  Lots of sage advice here!

 

After riding a few of these solo with nothing else to do but contemplate the meaning of it all, I have come to the conclusion that each qualifying brevet has a purpose.   Each distance has a lesson for the rider to learn or re-learn as necessary.  Each distance is both an event and preparation for the next event.

 

The purpose of the 200k is to teach you the basics of how it all works.  How to follow a route.  How to get your card validated at controls.  How to ride within time limits.
