PBP only happens once every four years, and the next edition rolls out from Rambouillet on Sunday, August 27, 2027. This isn’t something Audax Latvia organizes directly — registration and qualification are run entirely through ACP (Audax Club Parisien) — but we want to know who from our community is planning to take it on.
Thinking about riding? Click “I’m Attending!”. It’s not a commitment or a registration — just a quick way to let us (and other fellow riders) know you’re considering it. No sign-up required, just your name if you’d like to share it.
Why bother? A few reasons:
Find training partners — see who else is aiming for PBP and coordinate brevets together.
Help us plan — if there’s enough interest, we’re looking at organizing a PBP info session before qualification season starts.
Stay in the loop — questions about qualifying brevets, timelines, or logistics? Reach out anytime at the comments below.
Pre-registration allows you to choose your starting wave, depending on the places available.
Pre-registration for Paris-Brest-Paris will be opened gradually from January 2027 for people who have completed at least one BRM in 2026. The longer the BRM, the sooner this pre-registration can be done (RM events of 1200km and more count as BRM 1000).
People who have not validated a BRM in 2026 will also be able to pre-register from 27 March 2027.

Keep in mind that the PBP 2027 Qualifying window opens November 1, 2026!
There has been conflicting information online, but the official ACP rule for PBP 2027 is clear:
The qualifying window for PBP 2027 runs from November 1, 2026, to June/July 2027 (link).
This means:
Brevets ridden on or after November 1, 2026, WILL count toward your PBP 2027 qualification.
Brevets ridden in October 2026 or earlier will NOT count.
What this means for your plan:
If you ride a BRM in the USA in November 2026, it counts. You will not need to redo it in 2027.
You can use late-2026 rides to get a head start on your Super Randonneur series.
Important: verify the specific cutoff date for the 2027 season (usually late June or early July 2027) and ensure your rides are registered with an ACP-affiliated organization (like RUSA in the US).
The number of participants will be limited to 8000, of which 2500 slots will be reserved for French participants until March 31, 2027. After this date, those that have not been pre-registered will be made available to all.
Departure and Arrival: PBP 2027 will start (and finish) from the park of the Château de Rambouillet [map], 50km southwest of Paris, easily accessible by train.
The total price of registration for PBP will be decided in later in 2026. Pre-registration costs €50.
Pre-registration and registration for PBP 2027 does not start until Jan 16, 2027.
