It's Up and Running

STLBrevets has an all new look and feel and is now up and running. For those riders already chomping at the bit for the 2011 calendar you can see that online now.

I hope the new site is easier to navigate and I do my best to keep it all up to date. A special thanks to Randy Johnson for his in depth testing of the site.

2010 Brevet Cards

All brevet cards are in the mail and on their way back to you. I look forward to seeing you all in March.

New Website Coming

That's right! An all new stlbrevets.com website is in the works. There will be no change in address. You will still go to stlbrevets.com, but the site will have a new look and feel as well as much more content.

Personally, I am very excited to have this project just about done. I am currently running the site through Internet Explorer, FireFox, Google Chrome and Safari (for Windows) and making sure everything works. I do know that you will need to enable javascript for everything to look and work its best.

Unless I run up against something unforeseen, the new site should go live around November 13.

End of October Wrap-Up

I received the last of the brevet stickers from RUSA over the weekend. Last night while watching some mind-numbing episode of something I can't remember, I sat and attached those stickers.

I will be sorting all the brevet cards for the season, and packaging them all up. My plan is to get them out the door and into your hands by the end of October.

End of the Season

Wow, time has been flying. Each year the time feels like it is speeding up and flying by. All events for 2010 have finished. The last one was... well... about a month ago.

Next year's calendar is in the works and will be submitted to RUSA before the end of the month. I am looking at a minimum of two full ACP super series, with additional events thrown in.

The ACP requires all riders preparing for Paris-Brest-Paris to have completed their qualification no later than June 26th. Any brevets held after that date will be RUSA sanctioned events, and will NOT qualify you toward PBP or ACP awards.

I have been receiving some of the ACP certificates and have been sitting in front of the TV matching brevet cards and certificates. I do not have all certificates however, so sending them back to you will happen once I have the final certificates, mostly likely the end of October.

In the mean time, just kick back, ride your bicycle for fun, fitness, and mental health, and be safe.
