The Montgomery Madness - Completing a Permanent
Audax
Entering
Permanent audaxes should be entered at least 4 weeks before
you intend to ride although this may be relaxed at the discretion
of the organiser. Your brevet card and route sheet will be
sent to you by post.
Before You Ride
Before you ride, you must notify the organiser when you
intend to ride the event for insurance purposes. An e-mail
or recorded phone message is sufficient.
During the Ride
Collect evidence for your Brevet Card to ensure that it is
validated. Evidence of passage can include:
- Car park voucher (for the start).
- Collect till receipts from shops, cafes, pubs or garages
(receipts for petrol will lead to disqualification).
- Ensure that the receipt indicates the venue name, date
and time.
- Use banks, some garages and hotels or most post office's
over the counter services for an ATM receipt.
- If your mobile phone has the facility, take a digital
photograph of your bike leaning against some suitable landmark
and e-mail this to the organiser when you return home.
- You will still need some receipts for other parts of the
route.
After the Ride
Attach the evidence of passage to your brevet card and return
it to the organiser within 48 hours. Make sure that the receipts
are securely attached to your card and identified by number,
with a corresponding number in the card control box. Remember
to complete and sign the rear of the card.
