2025 Brevet Season

[Spencer Klaassen]

Good evening,

Joe Edwards and I finally got our 200 K in for the month yesterday, so our R-12 streaks are still intact.  Thank goodness, as it has been a cool (and snowy in St Joseph) January.  

I am starting to focus on the 2025 season.  Here are a few highlights:

John Stroh and Drew Evans are leading an early series for the RUSA Rouleau Award.  The series will start on March 1st.  See the KC website for more details:  https://www.audaxkc.com/

If the weather doesn't work out or if there is interest in a later season series of events, it might be run again in 2025.  Stay tuned. 

The first ACP event will be in Springfield, MO on March 8th.  It is a nice course that the riders of Springfield developed.  

I need to assign routes to many of the events, but those will depend upon the road construction.  More to come.  

A few more highlights:

The Fleche will return to our schedule in 2025.  It will end in St Joseph. 

We will be running a national UAF 600 K (True Audax Event) that will be the first Audax 600 K run outside of France.  It is May 24th.  If interested in either riding or supporting, please drop me an e-mail.  

A UAF 200 K (Team Ride) in Kansas City will be June 7th.  

The October 25th event (8K600K) will be changed to a point-to-point normal ACP 600 K starting in the Oklahoma City area and using the roads of Route 66.  Rod and I rode this as part of a capital-to-capital ride and we loved it.  

Finally, the November 1st UAF (Team Ride) in Nebraska will probably be moved to the Omaha area.  Details are being worked out.  https://www.nebraskasandhillsrandonneurs.com/

So, the season hasn't even started and I am making some changes.  Keep an eye on the website. 

Ride lots,

Spencer
