Who we are

A community built for distance

The association Audax LV was established in 2023 with a clear mission: to promote, support and organise long-distance cycling events. We bring together riders who love endurance cycling and enjoy challenging themselves on the road.

The board of Audax LV is officially authorised to conduct and oversee cycling events recognised by the Audax Club Parisien, the governing body of randonneuring. Every finisher is validated through a timed checkpoint system and an official brevet card.

Frequently asked questions

What is Audax LV?

Audax Latvia (Audax LV or ALV) is a long-distance cycling organisation in Latvia, established in 2023. It oversees long-distance cycling events and uses a timed checkpoint system to validate and record each successful ride.

What does “Brevet” mean?

It means “certificate”. It is the card you receive before the ride, stamped and validated by Audax LV as proof of your ride. The word is also used for the certified ride itself.

How long are the distances?

The classic distances are 200, 300, 400 and 600 km. Audax LV is closely connected with similar organisations worldwide, particularly in France, and events abroad follow the same BRM (Brevet de Randonneurs Mondiaux) rules.

How do I take part in an event?

The easiest way is online: find the event on the website, fill in the participant form and pay the fee set by the organisers. On-site registration before the start is possible, but takes more time and may cost slightly more.
