PBP 2015 / Paris - Brest - Paris Audax

If you're riding with the Vedettes (i.e. people aiming to do <50h) then you could probably survive without a Garmin. Just try and keep on the wheel of someone in the peloton and take your turn on the front on the really long straight bits.

Some fast friends of mine have done PBP in the past in 60hrs, and theyre a little faster than me, but I reckon I would have 80 covered. They entered as Vedettes.

has anyone got any links for the Vedette status and how it works?

All I can find is some vague forum inferences that Vedettes have an 80 hour cutoff imposed.
