Characterized by its untouched wilderness, high mountain passes, unpredictable weather and warm hospitality,the Silk Road Mountain Race is an adventure like none other.
The Silk Road Mountain Race is a fixed route, unsupported, single-stage cycling race through the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. The clock does not stop and there are no prizes.
It follows gravel, single and double track and old soviet roads that have long been forgotten and fallen into disrepair. There is very little tarmac. There is some hike a bike,
and at times there is great distances between resupply points.
The exact distance and elevation vary from year to year, but riders can expect approximately 1900km in distance, 30,000m of climbing, and 14 days to complete the route.
