Hondsrug Classic 2025

The Hondsrug Classic is a 60 km mountain bike race starting in Gasselte, Netherlands, at Houtvester Jansenweg. The 60 km ride begins at 11:00, organized by Stichting Endurance Sports. Advance registration is available, as is same-day entry, with a small discount for PLUS-account holders. The course follows the Hondsrug region near Gasselte, featuring off-road terrain instead of a road race format. Rider feedback indicates variable conditions: some parts become overgrown, one dry year had few puddles, and another year was exceptionally wet. This sensitivity to weather is a key consideration for tyre choice and race-day setup.
