PELOTON
Race Series — Cracked Tarmac · Mountain Switchbacks · Closed Roads
Where age-group competitors and elite riders pin numbers to the same start line. Criteriums, road races, and gran fondos on fully closed roads — timed to the millisecond.
Choose Your
Battle.
Three race formats. One start line philosophy. Whether you're sprinting a criterium circuit or grinding a 200km gran fondo, every rider gets chip timing, closed roads, and a real result.
Criterium
Short closed-circuit racing at race-pace intensity. Constant cornering, sprint primes, and a bunch finish. The most spectator-friendly format — every lap is a lap of racing.
Road Race
Traditional mass-start road racing on fully closed roads. Breakaways, peloton tactics, and mountain finishes. The format that separates the climbers from the sprinters.
Gran Fondo
UCI Gran Fondo World Series qualifier. Mass-start, fully timed, age-group rankings. Top 25% in your category earn a World Championships qualification. All abilities, one start line.
Not sure which format? — Start with a criterium. Most riders discover their category within two races.
Climb Until
Lungs Burn.
Every Gram
Earned.
Fully closed roads. Motor-cycle marshals at every junction. Medical team on course. Neutral service vehicles. Feed zones at regulation distances. Race radio. Every detail that separates a real race from a sportive.

"I've done sportives, charity rides, gran fondos. This was the first time I felt like a bike racer. Closed roads, commissaire, real results. My lungs tasted copper at the summit and I didn't care."

"Spent the whole winter on the trainer. 4:30am sessions, power intervals, six months of suffering in the pain cave. I needed a start line to justify all of it. Found it here. Got my upgrade."

"Our corporate team entered the relay. Eight riders, eight different fitness levels. The organisation was flawless — wave starts, chip timing per rider, the whole team got a result. We're back next year with two squads."
