You will be blown away by this long route!

Depart the HQ and immediately descend to the banks of the River Vltava as we meander along the banks through one of Europe’s finest cites!

We pass all the famous land marks and the scenery is stunning, furthermore we are on car free superb cycle ways as we head away from the City. You will be amazed at the start of this event, hopefully the buzz will keep you going for what lies in store!

The ride climbs away from the Vltava and heads into beautiful Czech countryside. The roads are open but it’s quiet as we pass across fields and through small villages. You’ll be reminded of Flanders and roads like the ones we enjoy in the early season classics.

We ride into the City of Melnik and the first feed stop. We’ve linned up a local resturant to help with the feed stop, amazing local food for the first stop and some great lighter stops on the 2nd.

After feed 1 we head into the beautiful bohemian forests, past stunning lakes and ride towards Kokorin Castle which you simply won’t believe!

The long route does a full loop of this gem of an area which is little known, even by Prague residents before heading South again towards the City.

We re-join the Medium Route riders near Melnik again calling in for a 2nd feed stop before heading the final KM back towards Prague.

After 154 km we are back to the HQ where the team will welcome you with a local sausage and of course a Czech Beer. All included in the price!

An awesome ride for anyone wanting to sample this beautiful part of Europe with all the facilities you enjoy in any Velo29 event.
