I think you can pre qualify by doing them in 2014, but if you haven't done any long rides you can rattle off a quick SR series in the first few months of 2015.
Well I haven't done any long 'audax' rides. I'm not sure my training rides count.
I might have a crack at the SR stuff next year then. Any idea of the best events to do? ie. the ones with accurate GPS tracks available. :) Probably best in the PBP thread eh?
One of the old audax hands will no doubt be along shortly to let you know which ones are suitable BRM-level qualifying rides. I would guess you'll have to plan a careful timetable but it will at least add to the challenge / excitement...
