BikeOdyssey 2020: 21 June - 28 June 2020
News
The Association of Friends of Sports of Gerakas and Bikeexpert invite you to a press conference for Bike Odyssey, Greece's top cross country bike race and one of the toughest in the world.
For another year, Mercedes-Benz Hellas will be on the side of Bike Odyssey 2019 as its most valuable partner.
As a modern cycling Odyssey, Bike Odyssey always keeps connecting its stations with the rich mythological tradition of Greece.
In the case of Kato Tithorea, this proved to be even easier, since Odysseus himself not only had relatives from Mount Parnassus but had also wandered on its slopes during his childhood. A more detailed reference is given in Homer’s Odyssey itself, in Rhapsody “τ”.
Bike Odyssey proceeded to a big change, as the change of the route towards Kato Tithorea in the prefecture of Fthiotida was just finalized. More specifically, the course of the race makes a big turn after Athanasios Diakos, by heading to Kato Tithorea of Fthiotida.
Due to the parallel run of two races for professional UCI athletes, the organization of the event decided to add another stage to the 3-days South Race, which now will be a 4-days Race.
The organization of Bike Odyssey 2019 now enables the participants of the race to shape and order their uniforms for the event according to their imagination.
