* GG '22 *
Self-supported Offroad bikepacking adventure
The Route
Belgium is often an undervalued country/region when it comes to cycling. It is mostly known for the regions where the professional cyclists compete for the podium ( Tour of Flanders, La Doyenne, ... you name it ).
We like those regions as well however, there is much more to discover in this little country ! The GG '22-track guides you along known and less-known places in the Southern half of Belgium, passing several provinces and touching/crossing the border with France. This year's edition will let you discover the beautifull nature between Chimay and Orval (Njam !)
We aim to maximize the amount of unpaved pleasure: not too technical but certainly not boring !
On our social media platforms, we provide updates on the final track, the highlights, our recon-rides and much more !
Like us, follow us !
Self-Supported !
The GG '22 is not a stage race, the clock never stops.
Riders must therefore strategically choose how much time they spend on riding, resting, and refueling each day.
Being self-supported means that:
- receiving any form of support from friends or family is not allowed,
- all food, accommodation, repairs, etc., must be purchased from commercial sources,
- drafting is not allowed, except between riders in duo.
Bikepacking
Comfort vs. lightweight? Your choice ! Everybody will have his own strategy and each strategy will have it's benefits.
Bivy bag with a limited amount of sleep? Tent and a romantic campfire diner? Or maybe just a spare T-shirt, shorts and a restaurant/hotel of your choice along the way?
Choose whatever fits you most and enjoy your time out there, we are looking forward to hear your story !
