#ultracycling
Quick reminder what this is all about: the UNKNOWN race is a non profit ultra cycling race, organized by avid ultracyclists. The starting fee was used to cover the costs for organizing the race. On top of that every participant put 50€ "into a pot" that would later go to a charity.
The checkpoints of the race were "unknown" and only given on the go, first checpoint location one hour before the start. First person to be back in Lyon who has been to every checkpoint got to decide which charity will receive the donation pot.
First editions winner Sebastian Sarx donated the money to: sea-watch.org/
Enjoy the video, I hope we could capture the spirit of the race a bit. Looking forward for more like this.
"We wanted something different, where pre-race preparations are not the key of the race. We designed this event as riders for riders. A challenge which shares the benefits to someone else than the organization. Don’t take it as a race but enjoy the event, meet other riders and have lots of fun.
The first finisher will choose the charity that will receive the money.
The race starts and ends at the same point in Lyon."

Dieses Jahr lief es ja leider noch schlechter für uns beim Unknown. Aber Max ist grade unter den top 10 beim "three peaks". Ich drücke ihm die Daumen.

Ich hab schon überlegt mich direkt für ein anderes Ultracycling Event nächsten Monat anzumelden aber ich glaube dafür fehlen mir dann doch die Ressourcen. Hab aber schon Bock dieses Jahr noch eins zuende zu fahren 😅

Ich wäre es definitiv mit 35mm gefahren 😅

Das ist doch kein Cyclocross Worldcup 😁 Mir hätten 25mm total gereicht, die Straßen in Frankreich sind echt super.
