Invitation to BRM 400 km Centenaire – Ogulin – Međugorje 

By taking part in the brevet you are providing at least one needy child with food during a whole year (In cooperation with Mary’s Meals)

About the ride
The first edition of the Ogulin-Međugorje ride last year was a smashing success so we are repeating it this year!

We are riding again for 410 km through rich and diverse scenery of Lika, Dalmatia and Hercegovina. We start from the city of fairytales – Ogulin, pass through the royal city of Knin, glorious Sinj and Imotska Krajina, and finish in Međugorje, the city of peace.

During the first part of the route we ride during the night, at an elevated altitude, so lower temperatures are possible. Later during the day we pass through Dalmatian Zagora and Hercegovina, known for hot weather in July. It is therefore wise to clothe in layers and be ready for both hot and cold weather. In any case, 4,000 meters of climbing in total is certain to rid us of any boredom during the ride.

We will again try to collect funds for school meals for needy children in cooperation with Mary’s Meals. The participation fee for the ride is 60 EUR and anything that you give above that amount we will transfer directly to Mary’s Meals. You can always donate directly to their account (HR7923600001102102666, with the description “Breveto 400 – donacija”).

About Mary’s Meals
Mary’s Meals is a global movement in operation since 2002. Back then they ensured meals for two hundred children. Today, thanks to this organization, over two million children receive a meal at their place of education every day. Children from the poorest parts of Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Eastern Europe and South America get a chance for healthy life and education, which for many of them is the only way out of poverty.

Mary’s Meals are also a unique humanitarian organization because, thanks to their many volunteers, they operate with minimal expenses, so that at least 93% of the donated funds reach the children who need it. Only 22 EUR feeds a child during the whole year!
