I am hoping you might pass on the contents of this note to the membership of the Experience Cycling Club and other potentially interested cyclists. Any racer worth his salt can ride a fast 200, 300 or 400k. Touring folks find finishing the distance to be satisfying. The real challenge is riding 600+ km. brevets. Randonneur cycling is a good way to build up endurance for racing.

Thank-you for your consideration.
