À propos de cette course
The Rad-Marathon in Neu-Anspach covers 202 km with approximately 2,500 meters of elevation gain, presenting a substantial ride rather than a brief local tour. It takes place in June, starting from the Bürgerhaus in Neu-Anspach, with participants departing early between 06:00 and 07:00. RV Vorwärts 1898 Anspach e.V. is the organizer, operating under the Hesse cycling association. This event is part of the Breitensport calendar, indicating it is intended for recreational and club cyclists, not exclusively racers.
The course utilizes GPS tracks and crosses secondary roads through the Taunus, a hilly area north of Frankfurt that contributes to the marathon's climbing challenge. The route profile is described as mountainous, a key factor for riders assessing the 202 km distance. RV Anspach, with over 40 years of organizational experience, has designed the event for cyclists seeking a structured, challenging marathon day that does not emulate a closed-road professional race.
