The Transcontinental Race is a is a self-supported bicycle race across Europe with no route! Riders have to create their own route and include the mandatory checkpoints and parcours.

Definitely the toughest ultra-distance cycling race in Europe that challenge your body and mind.

This is an insight into my story and my partner's as we complete the 3.800 km in 10 days and 21 H finishing as first pair and 16th position overall.

Self-supported you have to take care of all your needs and carry your equipment.

Self-routed, there’s no fixed course or route, you plan your own route passing through 4 different checkpoints ☑️

An ultra-endurance bikepacking adventure!
