Details for upcoming ACP sanctioned events are all on the site. Beginning with the Pagoda 200 in March, our SR series continues though the 600k in mid-May to allow plenty of time for PBP qualification. Our 2019 SR Series brevets will all start and finish from the same location in Easton. This should allow you to begin planning.
We have blocks of rooms set aside at the Holiday Inn Express for PAR riders on the 300, 400, and 600k events. Riders interested in rooms for Fridays before and/or Saturday/Sunday nights afterward should make their own reservations. The reservation block codes are provided in the description for the respective brevets. There is also a Quality Inn located nearby at the 25th Street exit which may offer more affordable rates and is only a short ride from the start location. All are advised to plan early. The Holiday Inn room blocks are limited and will be released a month before each event. The weekend of the 600k is a graduation weekend for several of the local colleges in Easton. Room availability will disappear quickly.
New routes have been created for the series offering a mix of old and new. Seeing new sights on a bicycle is fun. Climbing Mt. Penn to controle at the Pagoda in Reading will be a first on a PA Randonneurs brevet. The overnight control on the 600k will NOT be at the start-finish location, but tucked away on a mountain lake in the Poconos. Sometimes it is nice to travel along a familar path, navigate by instinct, and spend time noticing little things you never noticed before. Riding along the Delaware River is just too good to abandon completely, so you'll see sections that you know quite well. But pay attention since you never know when the route will deviate from the well worn path in search of new roads, or at least roads you haven't seen in quite a long time.
The PA SR series has long been recognized as one that prepares randonneurs heading to Paris to comfortably finish PBP. This year's SR series routes should be no different.
PA Randonneurs always needs volunteers to help out with brevets. Even with minimally supported brevets volunteers are needed to staff the start/finish zone and, occasionally, staff intermediate controls along the route. For more information about volunteering for PA Randonneurs click here.
