XIII Rajd Rowerem i Pieszo Wzniesienia Łódzkie Cieszą

The XIII Rajd Rowerem i Pieszo Wzniesienia Łódzkie Cieszą is a bike-and-walk event series in Łódź, focused on the city’s local hills. It is part of the Łódzki Klub Turystów Kolarzy PTTK, a cycling tourism club located at ul. Wigury 12a. The club’s regular Sunday rides depart at 9:00 from Park Staromiejski “Śledzia” near ul. Nowomiejska. These rides are open to all, with no sign-up required and no participant limit specified by the club. The terrain is suggested by the related “Korona Łodzi” ride, where participants ascend eight Łódź hills. These include Góra Rogi at 259 m, Górka Rogowska or Śmieciowa Góra at 244 m, Kopiec Pamięci in Park Ocalałych at 214 m, and Widzewska Górka at 245 m. The club’s records indicate a small, social group rather than a large competition: one hill ride had twelve participants, starting at Stary Rynek and finishing at Cukiernia Miś. ŁKTK also organizes Coffee Ride events, featuring approximately 50–55 km routes for club members and invited guests, with breaks at locations like Stoczki-Porąbki near Dłutowo for outdoor coffee and pizza.
