Held every four years, Paris–Brest–Paris is a seriously prestigious feather in your cycling cap. Perhaps that’s why it’s such a faff just to enter and sort the logistics of taking on this 1,200km ride, as Matt Page has been finding out
meant I was able to pre-register at the earliest point in January 2023. The shorter the event completed, the longer you must wait to pre-enter, and it means the event may sell out before having the chance, or less choice on which start group you will be in.
This process of qualification rides is to ensure that those wishing to take part have demonstrated a level of capability that shows they can complete the event. For me it has meant a significant time commitment, and this was made worse after my first 600km ended early with injury problems.
