RULES:

- The Regulations promulgated by Audax Club Parisien (ACP) apply.    

- To enter SVS, a successfully completed brevet series (200-300-400-600km) is required. You may be given a “wild card” if you have completed some 1200+ brevet in the past two seasons.

- SVS must be completed in 90 hours. The 90 hours rule is applied with the opening and closing time of control points based on the formula developed by the ACP and used for Paris-Brest-Paris.     

- Each rider must check in and check out of every checkpoint and get his/her SVS Control card signed and stamped as indicated. A few controls allow taking a receipt (with site name, date and time) instead of stamp.

- No follow vehicles are allowed. Support vehicles must follow an alternate route. Support vehicles on the rider route will result in rider penalties. Multiple infractions of this rule result in rider disqualification.   

- Support crews are permitted to support the rider at checkpoints only.    

- Riders may only accept mechanical assistance from the SVS Staff on the SVS route. Riders may accept other support at checkpoints.

- Each rider must comply with lighting requirements and reflective material rules for riding at night during the event.    

- Helmets are strongly recommended. They are expected to become compulsory soon.

- Each rider must pass bike inspection. It will take place at registration.

- Each bike must be functional and equipped with superior headlights and taillights. A dual headlight system or spare bulb is required, and a solid red taillight. Riders may use a flashing taillight in addition to the steady light.   

- If a rider abandons, he/she is responsible to notify SVS staff by calling the 24-Hour Emergency Telephone number printed on the SVS Control Card.    

- Riders who abandon are responsible to find their own transportation back to the start.
