The Brevet Card: Your Passport to Legend
The Brevet Card (La Credenziale) is the soul of the 20K HERITAGE RALLY project. It is the official document that certifies your passage along the military roads and historic passes of the route. It is not just a ritual, but the physical bond between you, your bicycle, and the territory you are crossing.
How it works
- Pick up your card: Collect your official Brevet Card at authorized distribution points before starting your adventure.
- Follow the track: Pedal along the 1,000 km of the route, immersing yourself in the breathtaking landscapes of the Alps.
- Get stamped: Look for the dedicated stamp at every official Checkpoint. Each mark on your card is a milestone reached, a memory etched in time.
- Become a Finisher: Once your collection of stamps is complete, your Brevet Card will serve as the required document to claim your official 20K Heritage Rally Finisher Certificate.
The Checkpoints
The route includes mandatory passage points where you will find the official stamps. These locations have been chosen not only for their strategic position, but for their historical value and the warm hospitality they offer to cyclists.
Why the Brevet Card?
In a world dominated by GPS tracking and digital segments, the Brevet Card brings adventure back to a tactile dimension. It is your silent witness: at the end of the journey, marked by dust stains and signs of wear, it will be your most precious trophy to keep.
