So the way Paris Brest Paris works, it is similar to an alley cat race, where you check in at different checkpoints(controls) where your brevet card is stamped and the time is recorded. Along with the scheduled controls, there are secret ones as well. So 1200+km of that, in the French countryside. I like that it is only organized every 4 years, it makes it special.

I love the Passport and the stamps, but did you have the cake?

I almost didn't have the cake. After the ride, I realized I didn't, and my two friends I went to France with bought me one as a gift when we got back to our apartment in the Montmartre section of Paris.
