For any 300k or longer brevet you must have RUSA approved lights and reflective gear with you and operational as needed or you will receive a DNF for the brevet.

Brevets are generally not races for which there is no prize money, so please be polite to all volunteers, fellow riders and convenience store attendants. Helping a fellow rider to finish is allowed and should make you feel better.

Please ensure that you dress appropriately for the weather conditions and have sufficient supplies and extra funds if needed for anything that may arise while en route on brevets!

This is an ACP-RUSA Brevet route number 689. The total time allowed from start to finish is 20 hours. The actual distance is approximately 302 Kilometers. Riders must follow and complete the approved route. This route goes through several small towns in central North Carolina traveling along mostly low traffic roads. There may be some sections where traffic is high, so please ride carefully and safely at all times. The intermediate controls are at the Norwood, Ellerbe, Laurinburg, Ellerbe & Norwood where stores allow you to refuel with some basic supplies. There are also some other stores along the route where you may be able to stop and get limited nutritional supplies.

This is a basic route map. Please note that all online images, que sheets and maps are for general reference. Offical routes will be provided at the event start for registered participants. Anoter map version is available by clicking on either map. There will also be a version on MapMyRide.
