_________________________________________________Welcome to the homepage of Super Brevet Scandinavia SBS is a long distance cycling event arranged by the audax organizations of Scandinavia, the Audax Clubs Nordiques. It is scheduled every fourth year - next edition in August 2029.
SBS starts in Denmark in Hirtshals at the top of Jutland and runs south-east across Zealand to Elsinore, enters Sweden and turns north and finally west to Norway and the finish in Kristiansand. The total distance is 1200 km which must be completed within 90 hours.
The participants must acknowledge regulations similar to the ones applied to legendary Paris-Brest-Paris. It means that SBS is not a race, but a 'brevet', which is the French for 'diploma' or 'examination'. Participants are not supposed to regard each other as competitors, but to ride along as individuals or to form groups of suitable paces.
It is only possible to participate through the purchase of a support package. The support package includes accommodation at the start in Hirtshals, one in Elsinore, one in Sweden (Uddevalla), two in Norway, Skien and at the finish in Kristiansand. We also supply breakfast, a meal in the evening, and transportation of one bag between the overnight controls. According to the rules no support are offered on the route between controls.
