sorry but what does 'BP' mean

Finish the ride, and pay a little extra at the end to get a badge. It'll be sent to you after the event along with your brevet card. Or as in my case, the thieving bastard posty will think it's a pound coin and rip a hole in the envelope.

Not a good idea to put objects in envelopes.A coin or badge should have gone into a jiffy bag.Your post could have damaged very valuable sorting machinery.

I doubt the confusion. The medal is a lot bigger than a pound coin. The medal might have been squeezed out of the envelope by the mechanical sorting machinery. A more robut envelope might have seen the medal reach its destination.
