Arrivée
is the quarterly magazine of AUK.

Audax Club Parisien (ACP)
is the club which initiated the Brevet de Randonneur style of cycle ride.

Brevet
can be:
(i) a certified ride,
(ii) the card carried on such a ride,
(iii) the award for successful completion of such a ride.

Brevet Populaire (BP)
describes a certificated ride of lesser distance and/or speed than the traditional Brevet de Randonneur.

Brevet de Randonneurs Mondiaux (BRM)
is a term registered to Audax Club Parisien, used to describe a cycling event controlled through a series of time and distance checks by means of a 'brevet card'. BRM events are registered with ACP, appear in the Randonneur Mondiaux Calendar published by ACP, and those in the UK are also registered with AUK and appear in the AUK Calendar.

Brevet de Randonneur (BR)
describes an event registered with AUK, similar to BRM but subject only to AUK Regulations.

The AUK Calendar
is the list of cycle rides, registered with AUK, on particular dates.

Controls
are places riders must visit to prove they have completed an event.

Permanent rides
are BR or BP which are registered with AUK but not calendared and can be ridden at any time by arrangement with the organiser.

Les Randonneurs Mondiaux (LRM)
are the clubs of the world, of which AUK is one, who are responsible for registering their country’s BRM with ACP.

Grimpeur or Super Grimpeur
indicate hilly or very hilly events.
