I want to participate in PBP for the first time in 2027 and was wondering how important a BRM1000 in 2026 will be to certainly qualify?

I would have no problem in doing one, but I’ve checked my calendar for 2026 and all the 1000 brevets offered in my country won’t fit. Either I or my wife will be on a business trip and one has to take care of the kids.

I can easily fit a 600 in the calendar though. Will I qualify 100% with a BRM600 in 2026? Or should I rather expand my search to neighboring countries in order to fit a 1000 in?
