Have Some Fun; Try a Brevet!

2023-04-03T19:20:36-07:00

The leaders of Randonneurs USA (RUSA) and the World UltraCycling Association (WUCA) recently came together over the realization that there was significant overlap in the interests of their respective members.  Believing that there are attractions to both forms of long distance cycling, and that many members in each organization may be tempted to try activities in the other realm, we thought you might be interested to hear from a few members with deep experience in both.  Our questions were answered by three respondents: Georgi Stoychev, Andrea Matney and Dan Driscoll.  All three have impressive resumes, built over years of participation [...]

From a WUCA perspective, there were two standout elements that filled the void left by cancelled races.  Of those who trained hard preparing for the 2020 season, [...]
