Racing since 2019
Born from the passion of four friends who explored this region on their 33mm tires many years ago, our event is a testament to our love for gravel riding. We’ve always yearned to share the beauty of this region with our fellow gravel enthusiasts, and on a whim, the first edition was born. Since then, our dedication has been unwavering as we strive to enhance the event year after year. Former racers turned leisurely riders, we aim to curate an experience that reflects our own desires – the kind of race and event we’d love to participate in.
What do we prioritize? It’s about creating a vibrant atmosphere, a meticulously marked course that is both challenging and showcases breathtaking scenery. We insist on real, nourishing food at aid stations, and post-race celebrations featuring delicious meals and refreshing beer. Our commitment extends to so much more, ensuring every participant enjoys not just a race but an unforgettable gravel adventure.
