Terms

What a plan is not

A plan here is not an entry, not a registration and not a booking. Entering a brevet happens with the organiser, and nothing you do on this site tells them you are coming.

It is also not evidence. We do not validate rides, we do not homologate anything, and the times you stamp in the app prove nothing to anybody — your brevet card and the organiser's procedure are the only record that counts. We are not affiliated with Audax Club Parisien, Audax UK, RUSA or any other club or federation, and we do not speak for them.

If a plan and a brevet card ever disagree about what you did, the brevet card is what happened.

Your ride is yours

You decide whether to start, whether to continue and whether to stop. Riding to a schedule this tool produced is a choice you are making, and long-distance cycling carries real risk — from traffic, from weather, from terrain and from being tired enough that judgement goes. None of that is reduced by having a good plan, and a plan that says you have twenty minutes in hand is not a reason to take one.

Navigation is not this product's job. We read a route file to work out how hilly a leg is; we do not check that the route is safe, legal or passable, and we will never tell you which way to turn. You are responsible for obeying the law of the road wherever you are riding.

The app cannot wake you. It has no alarm and cannot get one: a website cannot make your phone go off at a set time with the screen off, on any phone, and we would rather say so plainly than ship something that works until the one night it matters. If you are sleeping at a control, set an alarm on your phone yourself.

Accounts

You do not need an account to work out a schedule, and most of this product never asks for one. If you make one, it works by sending a code to your email address — there is no password — so whoever can read that inbox can sign in. Keep it to yourself, and tell us if you think somebody else has been in.

You must be old enough to enter into a contract where you live, the address you give must be one you are entitled to use, and you must not try to break the site, overload it or get at anybody else's plans. We can close an account that is being used to do any of those, and we would tell you why.

Plans you make without signing in live in your own browser and nowhere else. We cannot see them, cannot recover them and cannot delete them for you. Browsers do clear their own storage, so if a plan matters to you, keep it on an account, print the card, or export it.

What we hold and what you can do about it are on the privacy page, including taking a copy of everything and deleting the account yourself.

Paying

The planner is free and is a whole product: official times, the control editor and per-leg speeds are not withheld from anybody. What you can buy is access to the rest of it, for twelve months from the day you buy it — either on one brevet or across all of them, depending on which you chose. Prices are in pounds sterling and are shown before you pay.

Payment is taken by Stripe on their own pages. We never see your card.

Refunds. If you change your mind within 14 days of buying, email [email protected] and you will get your money back, no reason needed. After 14 days we will still listen: if the product did not do what this site said it would, say so and we will sort it out. Nothing here affects your statutory rights.

Access is attached to your account, not to a device, so it follows you to a new phone. Buying twice for the same brevet is something we would rather refund than keep.

Changes, and endings

This is a small product run by one person. Things will be added, some things will change, and occasionally something will be down. We do not promise it will be available at any particular moment, which is part of why the app is built to keep working on your phone with no signal at all.

If we ever stop selling, access that has already been bought is honoured to the end of its twelve months, and nobody's plans disappear without warning: you would be told, and given the export, before anything was switched off.

Asking to be told when the paid version lands is not a purchase, a reservation or a queue place, and it holds no price. It is a single message, if and when there is something to send it about — and there may never be. Nothing about the free planner depends on it, and taking your address back off changes nothing you can do here. What we hold in the meantime is on the privacy page.

These terms may change. The date at the top says when they last did, and if a change actually matters to you we will email the address on your account rather than quietly editing this page.

Where we stand if something goes wrong

We are responsible for the product doing what this site says it does, and for putting it right when it does not. We are not responsible for the outcome of your ride: missing a control, being timed out, a homologation refused, or a journey that did not go the way the plan said it would.

Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot be limited by law. Beyond that, and where you are a consumer, we are not liable for losses that were not a foreseeable result of us getting something wrong.

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction. If you live elsewhere in the UK you keep the right to bring a claim in your own courts.

If part of these terms turns out to be unenforceable, the rest still stands.
