2013 Brevet and Populaire Schedule

I'm finally dusting off the cobwebs of this blog and getting up some fresh content!

My 2013 brevet and populaire schedule is set.  We have some great rides planned this year including the 2nd annual Bert Karp Memorial Populaire on the 4th of July, a full brevet series, and a bonus 200K brevet we hope to ride in Yellowstone National Park!

Our first ride will be a 200K brevet starting and finishing in Missoula, MT on May 4, 2013.  It's similar to the  route we rode in 2011, but with more bike path miles and no miles on the narrow East Side Highway.  The route still goes to Frenchtown, but instead of Corvallis, the turn-around is now Hamilton.  There's lots of services available on this route and it's nice and flat-which is always important this time of year in Montana.

Here's our schedule.  Many more details to follow so stay tuned.  Let me know if you have any questions.

200K Brevet, May 4, Missoula


300K Brevet, June 15, Belgrade

100K Populaire, July 4, Bozeman

400K Brevet, July 20, Columbus (tenative start location)

600K Brevet, August 31-September 1, Helena

200K Brevet, September 28, West Yellowstone (Yellowstone National Park South loop).
