Velodroom Ot & Sien Gravelride

The Velodroom Ot & Sien Gravelride is a gravel cycling tour held in Roden, located in the northern Dutch province of Drenthe. Participants begin at Kanaalstraat 63 between 09:00 and 10:00, selecting either a 70 km or 90 km route. WTC Roden is the organizing body, with registrations managed via Fietssport.nl. The tour follows unpaved gravel paths, sand roads, and forest tracks in the vicinity of Roden and North Drenthe. The terrain is characterized as quiet and well-kept, making it suitable for gravel bikes over road bikes, yet still offering a genuine off-road experience. Support stations are positioned along the course, catering to both seasoned gravel cyclists and those new to riding off paved roads.
