Thanks to the efforts of Dimitar Balanski, our ACP representative Bulgaria became member of the Randonneuring movement. The first 1200k for Bulgarians was PBP’1999, successfully completed by 5 from 7 riders. From left to right: Atanas Ivanov, Valeriy Kitanchev, Dimitar Balanski, Harutun Tevekelyan (†), Alexey Panteleev - DNF Brest, Vasil Gyuzelev, Zdravko Anastasov - DNF Brest

The first East-European to take part in this ride was Lazar Vladislavov.
BMB was the first big ride for Lazar, who has become randonneur by completing his first ever 200k BRM only 4 months prior to BMB (April 7th)! He is between Jennifer Wise and Fred Kresse on the photo.

Lazar Vladislavov at the Harlow start.
He met in London not only his brother, but the famous Jack Eason too (seen in the right corner of this pic). 1400km in 91 hours.

Second consecutive participation for Bulgaria. From left to right: Adrian Krumov, Dr. Plamen Bujev (needed about 110 hours to arrive in Guyancourt after a good bath at the beach of Moulin-Blanc in Brest), Lazar Vladislavov, Dimitar Balanski (ACP representative), Stanimir Gyurov, and Nedyalko Petrov (56 y/o, with national record: 60:49).

Adrian Krumov and Lazar Vladislavov at Kamloops: the only European team with more than 1 participant. Less than 79 hours of finish time is a good attestation for newcomers. Almost 2 hours of fantastic film on Lazar's camcorder: bears, elks, wild goats, summits and waterfalls, cyclists and scenery: everything was there!

Stefan Baharov, Aleksey Panteleev, and Lazar Vladislavov at the finish line in Kristiansand, Norway. Exausted, but happy after many rainy hours and days and cold weather. The 70 y/o Stefan has become the oldest ever to complete this ride, and it was a "double" for him, as for the others, after having completed SVS one month earlier.

The largest number of Bulgarian participants ever: 11 starters with 7 finishers, 2 out of time, 2 DNF. Except Dimitar Balanski (only one with 3 participations) and Lazar, all of the rest participated for the first time on PBP. Visit the website of our jersey sponsor: http://nobel.directlinkbg.com/

It will be remembered by 4-5 above 14% climbs and dozens above 10%. 2 Bulgarian participants again: Dimitar Balanski and Lazar. Traditional DVD movie is available.
