Our mission, history, and the spirit of randonneuring.
Founded in 2010, Randonneurs Belarus started with a simple idea: to bring the rich French tradition of Audax Club Parisien to the sprawling, beautiful roads of our homeland. What began with a handful of enthusiasts has grown into a nationwide movement.
Before GPS head units and ultra-light bikepacking gear, completing a 200km brevet required a paper cue sheet, a reliable dynamo, and immense grit. Our first official brevet saw only 8 finishers, battling headwinds and gravel roads. It wasn't about speed; it was about survival and camaraderie.
"We didn't ride to win. We rode to prove that the human body can outlast the setting sun."
No team cars. No sag wagons. Just you, your bike, and what you can carry.
Pushing past the physical and mental limits to achieve distances previously thought impossible.
We ride alone, but we finish together. Helping a fellow rider is always prioritized over finishing time.
