"Unfortunately, it is impossible to hold our event at the end of May," the organisers of the Rhönradmarathon announced in a press release. The reason: it is foreseeable that the event will not be authorised.
The Rhön Cycle Marathon and the Rhön Tour are to take place this year on the alternative dates of 10 and 11 July. The cycle marathon routes will be offered on Saturday and the RTF/CTF routes will only be offered on Sunday. In addition, fewer starting places will be offered.
The association hopes that authorisation will be granted at a later date and has drawn up a hygiene concept for this. The registration portal opens at the end of March.
The most important changes:
- 1,500 starting places on the marathon distances (instead of 2,000)
- Saturday, 10 July 2021: Marathon distances (180, 211, 258 km)
- Sunday, 11 July 2021: RTF (family tour, 52, 85, 114 km)
- CTF (MTB 40 km) will be offered on both days
