09 – 10 May 2026
Hello 👋🏼 I’m a self-supported, single-stage, fixed-route cycling event in Lucerne, Switzerland. My course is challenging, beautiful and wild! I’m sold out, but I have a waiting list.
About
A fairly new challenge just happens the third time in Lucerne. 100 riders will cycle two days throw the finest dirt-roads Lucerne has to offer!
The route and effort is timed, but there is no celebration of individual performances. The fact that the riders dare to take part is worthy of equal praise.
Route
An approx. 300km loop with mixed terrain and some elevation. Two days of mixed emotions, beautiful landscapes and wild rides. At least 60% of the route was on natural roads, singletrails. Of these, at least 95% (time) will be rideable.
The route passes through several towns which offer overnight accommodation and resupply.
Gear
Gravel or MTB with light gears and min. 40mm tires. (Expect some S2 trails up and down. If comfort is more important than time we would highly recommend to bring a MTB.)
Weatherproof clothing, lighting, repair kit, GPS device (cell phone), cycling computer with the route, battery pack, first aid kit.
