B & N Cycling - Γύρος της Κύπρου 2012: Ποδηλατική Πρόκληση

Tour of Cyprus Logo Published on the Greek B & N Cycling web site.

ΓΥΡΟΣ ΤΗΣ ΚΥΠΡΟΥ 2012

23 – 25 Μάρτη

Ο Γύρος της Κύπρου είναι μια μεγάλης κλίμακας διεθνής cyclosportive εκδήλωση στη Κυπριακή Δημοκρατία. Μια πρόκληση αντοχής σε πολλαπλά στάδια σε πνεύμα παρόμοιο με εκείνο του «Tour de France» αλλά ανοικτή τόσο σε ερασιτέχνες όσο και επαγγελματίες ποδηλάτες. Η διοργάνωση του Γύρου της Κύπρου 2012 έχει ως στόχο, εκτός από τις τοπικές συμμετοχές να ενθαρρύνει ποδηλάτες από διάφορες χώρες να ζήσουν το πάθος τους εκτός της χώρας τους και να μπορέσουν να ανακαλύψουν νέους ορίζοντες, τόσο όσον αφορά τον αθλητισμό όπως και τον πολιτισμό.

VEGAN PRO CYCLIST

Christine will be taking part in the Tour of Cyprus again this year, and has posted the following on her blog:

Want to kickstart your season? Or get perfect preparation for an upcoming Gran Fondo event? Then this is the perfect workout experience!!

I did this two years ago. The memories i have from it will last forever which is why i am telling you about it!

It is a three-day stage ride/race from Friday through Sunday, March 23-25, 2012
Day 1 - 80km
Day 2 - 120km
Day 3 - 115km
Click HERE for the maps/charts

They offer two groups to join:

1. Cycling for glory - with timed sections where you can challenge yourself against the clock, claim the win of the day or even win the coveted leader's jersey
Each day, a timed section of about 20km or so is scheduled in the middle of the 80-120km ride.

2. Cycling for personal glory - same routes as the other group but no timed sections.

There are feed zones along the way with standard staples like bananas, etc but they also include exotic snacks that you'll want to stuff yourself with!

You can also extend your visit to make it a long holiday - contact organizer for help with this.

At the moment, flights are cheap to Cyprus so book NOW!!

Photo from Stage 3 of the 2010 Tour No bicycle race for next spring? Then think about the Tour of Cyprus, from 23 to 25 March 2012. After one year absence, the cyclo tourist event is back on the calendar.

It is one of the best events we have witnessed in one of the most beautiful cycling spots you can think of.

It is one of the best events we have witnessed in one of the most beautiful cycling spots you can think of. In Cyprus, the roads are good, the weather is nice and, well, let's not trot. The 2012 Tour of Cyprus takes you three days in a large part of the island, at least, the Greek side of it. The start is in Nicosia, Larnaca in Lemessos then through to finish.
