Rocky Effect

The "Rocky effect"
...VanIsle too

The Rocky Mountain 1200 is a BC Randonneur brevet which has become increasingly inter-provincial and international. The total distance covered by participants who were not bona fide BC Randonneurs in 2004 was 68,400 km. This amount makes the Total Club Distance look impressive, but is also misleading as a snapshot of club riding activity. Below is a list indicating Total Club Distance adjusted to address this issue. These figures are a better indication of ongoing club participation levels by local riders. So for the five Rocky Mt. 1200 years, the figures in bold in column 5 (below), and are the figures you'll find in bold in column 12 on the main Stats Summary Hub table. [Same principle applies for the VanIsle 1200 introduced in 2006.]
