TOUR DE SJÆLLAND
VeryLirens presents a 500km ultra race against the sun taking on the 500km's around Sjællands coasts. Take on the route SOLO, as a TEAM (maximum 6).
Once you have ridden the 500km coastal loop around Sjælland we will write your name on the TDS wall of fame.
RACE AGAINST THE SUN
VeryLirens is organising a race for those wanting to beat the clock, or simply take on the challenge. With the sunrise at 4:28 and sunset at 21:59, it will take consistent trading and quick pitstops to make through the 512km's of the route.
There will be a common start at 4:28, from Rådhuspladsen, in Copenhagen, where riders will ride out together out of Copenhagen where the horses will be let loose once on Gammel Køge Strandevej.
Once arrived, and recovered, riders can send their Strava file to be authenticated and their time to be put on the Wall of Fame.
The race is completely free, and unsupported. All information will be communicated by mail up to the race.
Prizes for the winners will be announced soon.
