How to Choose the Right Cycling Event

Not every cycling event is the same. Here are the most common formats to help you decide.

Granfondo

A long-distance, mass-participation ride. Great for endurance riders who enjoy beautiful routes.

Criterium

Short, fast, multi-lap races on a closed circuit. Perfect for tactical and explosive riders.

Audax / Brevet

Self-supported long-distance rides. Less about speed, more about completing the distance within a time limit.

Pick the one that matches your goal and have fun out there!
