IT’S BREVET SEASON
Hello 2015 Brevet riders,
Whether you are an old hand or a new brevet
adventure rider … its only 6weeks until daylight savings & 24weeks to the
start of the Brevet – yahoo
Hi there we are Jo & Scott Emmens…. And
we are the new official planners of the 2015 brevet.
Both Scott & I have ridden the Kiwi
brevet 2 times – in each direction, we both have a huge passion for cycle
touring & brevet style rides.
So we are super excited & amped to be
organising the brevet this time around as we have both loved the adventure this
ride brings to people.

Scott & I have been reading all the
feedback from this year’s brevet & we are starting to look at the course.
We have some other brevet riders who are
suggesting small amendments to the course to make it more enjoyable, so we are
busy in discussions with them to design the best course for everyone.
We will be keeping the course pretty
similar to the 2014 route – but we will be running it in reverse.
Over the next few weeks / months we will
start posting links to blogs of other riders doing awesome cycle adventures, we
will be posting gear lists, & other fun bit & pieces to keep you
interested.
But 1st if you have not already
please take the time to read the blogs attached to the Kiwi brevet page & get
a feel for what is in store for you & get you super excited about the
adventure ahead.
By reading these you will learn a lot of
tips & tricks to riding a brevet & finishing successfully.
Also top tips on the best places to
stop…camp…eat…sleep… etc.
So if you have any questions or suggestions
please don’t hesitate to contact us at
If you are a new brevet rider & just
want to chat about what is in store for you on the brevet– please contact us, we
would love to talk to anyone & answer any questions you might have.
So dust off those bikes, get them in for a
service & start getting that backside some serious hours in the saddle (trust
