11 Reservoir tour

11 reservoir tour
210, 180 or 140 kilometres
Gravel

This summer, we are going to do another little outing for all those who want "more" than just Border posts! Bram Tankink has mapped out another great gravel route from the Netherlands along 11 reservoirs through the Eifel and the Ardennes. So this time no border posts but reservoirs as highlights, but you can expect another wonderful event with plenty of experience from us in the border region through Germany and Belgium. Who dares the challenge and will be back before sunset?

This is all you can expect from us:

We start and finish at Bistro Le Soigneur in Sippenaeken.
At 07:30 there will be a group start with Bram Tankink after which we will hopefully witness a beautiful sunrise.
As participants, you have a choice of three distances. The full tour is 180 km, we have a light version of 140 km and for the real Die Hards there is an all you can eat distance of 210 km!
You do need to be well trained for this last distance, as it is quite a challenge with lots of gravel and over 3,000 altitude metres.
You need to be in before sunset at 9pm, so keep that in mind when choosing your distance.
Along the way, you will encounter 11 beautiful reservoirs. The light version includes 7 reservoirs.
Participants will receive a GPX file of the route and can cycle it on their own. The route will not be signposted!
At the start, you get a delicious cup of coffee and real Limburg flan.
Along the way, we will have two refreshment points. Otherwise, the tour is completely self-supported where we do give some recommendations!
There will be medical support and a breakdown service for when you cannot continue on your bike.
At the finish, everyone gets a tasty burger with pasta and a nice beer from Koerspret.

We want to keep this tour small and exclusive, so there are only a limited number of starting tickets! So don't wait too long to register if you want to be there!
