Not even close to France
Not even close to France but indeed quite active.
There are a lot of 200, 300, 400 and 600 Km brevets, but we don't have a 1000 Km one yet.
Most of the clubs organizing brevets are in the southeast of the country. There is immense room for the sport to grow. But our reality is quite different from the USA or Europe. Not many good roads for randonneuring and many careless drivers. But things are improving and we are struggling to make it happen!

Lack of decent roads are a big deterrent to randonneuring, which require control points which are not always in the nicest places.
