About this race
De Meet is an annual gravel marathon for cyclists in the area between Deventer and Doetinchem, now in its sixth edition. It is part of the Parijs is nog ver series and is for riders who want to leave normal roads behind for a more adventurous day on the bike.
The course is mostly off-road, with about 80 percent on unpaved roads through varied landscapes. It suits cyclists who like a physical challenge but also enjoy the quieter feel of gravel riding. Along the way, riders get a cycling-cafe stop, described by the organizers as a unique part of the ride and a real pause in the middle of the route.
