This year’s programme spans four days and combines gravel racing over routes of 25, 50 and 100 kilometres, a Bike Expo, educational activities, and open public events for all.
Over 160 riders from Greece and abroad are expected in Megalopolis to take on the three routes.
The headline guest is Paolo Bettini, Olympic road race champion at the 2004 Athens Games – a presence that underlines the event’s international reach and sends a powerful signal about the potential of Greek cycling tourism.
A public city ride, a live concert in the main square and a school bike raffle turn a niche sporting event into a celebration for the whole town.
Under the auspices of the Greek National Tourism Organisation.
