March 17, 06:00, Cheonan-Asan KTX station: Fifty-two Randonneurs mounted their bikes, ready to tackle the very first Cheonan 300K Brevet. The conditions were close to ideal as the rain had stopped, the temperature was well above freezing and no noticeable headwind was to be faced. Riders headed southwest to the first control in Cheongyang and then on to Janghang on quiet country roads along Korea’s beautiful valleys. In Janghang riders turned north and followed the coastline to the beach resort of Daecheon. From there the route took Randonneurs northwest to the ancient walled city of Haemi where they had to check in at the 7 Eleven. Another 70 km of westward riding and riders reached the “finish line” at the GS25 in Cheonan. Forty-six riders finished within the 20 hour time limit, some with only seconds to spare.

Randonneurs are long-distance unsupported endurance cyclists who cover distances between 200km and 1200km and beyond. Randonneuring has its roots in France and every four years in August Randonneurs from around the globe gather in this country to participate in the 1200km event Paris-Brest-Paris (PBP). The Korea Randonneurs were established in 2009 and the first Brevets were held in 2010 (BICYCLELIFE article). All Korea Randonneurs Brevets have been sanctioned by Audax Club Parisien (ACP 601000) and can be used to qualify for PBP. Check out our permanent new web site.
랜 도너스 (Randonneurs) 는 200km 에서 1200km 사이의 장거리를 다른 사람의 도움 없이 오직 자신의 인내로 자전거를 타는 사람들을 의미합니다. 랜도링 (Randonneuring) 은 프랑스에서 기원되었고 매년 8월에 개최하는 파리-브레스트-파리 (PBP) 1200km 구간에 참여하기 위해 세계 곳곳에 있는 많은 랜도너스들이 이곳으로 모였으며 이 대회는 4년 동안 개최되었습니다. 한국랜도너스는 2009 년에 설립되었으며 첫 Brevets은 2010 년에 개최되었습니다 (BICYCLELIFE). 한국에서의 모든 랜도너스 싸 이클링은 Audax Club Parisien 에 의해 승인되었음 (ACP 601000).
