We wanted to create a route combining the love for cycling and its history, nature, culture and spirituality in a long bicycle journey towards an iconic destination that has always fascinated with its legends and traditions. 

RAID TO CABO FINISHTERRE offers different concepts to allow everyone to discover the ultra distance self support and experience an extraordinary adventure, regardless of their level. You can run to get your best performance or you can choose to travel enjoying the journey. 
There will be no classification on arrival of the participants , no prize for the fastest rider but the joy of being FINISHER along with smiles, beer for everybody.

A list of the Finishers with personal time will be published on our website at the end of the event.

The clock never stops from the start and riders manage their own route passing through 3 mandatory check points in self supported way.

During the preliminary checks, each participant will receive a brevet card. The cyclist must personally show the brevet card and have it registered at each official checkpoint, in order to communicate the cyclist’s position and passage time in real time. The loss of the brevet card or an incomplete or irregular control visa will result in the non-approval of the patent. In any case, for the purposes of homologation as Finisher, the delivery of the control card certifying the passage through all defined control points is required.

No external support. All food, drink and equipment must be carried or acquired at commercially available services.

Participants who decide to abandon the event will have to communicate it to the organization.

In the spirit of RAID TO CABO FINISHTERRE, participants are allowed to draft each other and cycle in small groups to enjoy the ride and share the experience.

All participants must be of legal age on the day of the event (18 years old).
