Lise, As far as I can tell, a Brevet is a longer ride, starting at 200k, that goes up in monthly steps, 200k, 300k, 400k, 600k, which can be used to qualify for some sort of other race. There is a time limit- for 200k, in FL, that seems to be 13.5 hours. It sounds like plenty of time... The ride is unsupported, but there are check points that you go through and get your card stamped to prove that you were there, as well as secret check points, so you can't cut the course.

In FL, there are several 200k Brevets, as well as two or three series of increasing distances. I can't imagine, at this time, 300k, so I will do 200k and see what happens...
