Oldenburg

Oldenburg is pancake-flat in the north German lowlands with cycling as the dominant sport—the region's signature events are the GO FOR YELLOW RTF (155km) and Bremer Roland Radmarathon (205km), both fast, long routes across the agricultural plains. Runners find the terrain best suited to steady-paced road miles on canal towpaths and through the Hunte river valley rather than technical work. For gravel riders, the Die ich mag's dreckig Tour (74km) stays local and exploits the sandy farm tracks that criss-cross this wheat country.
