Calendar of sporting events

Warta Gravel is coming in August, and on July 25th, we invite you to the second summer installment of Gravet! This time, there are two routes to choose from – 100 km and 160 km, which will take you south of Poznań.

Gravets are a great opportunity to get to know us, test your skills on a longer route, and see that having fun is the most important thing, not always the result. We invite you to a small event focused on integrating the cycling community and pure adventure.

✳️ What is Warta Gravet?
It's an event inspired by the idea of ​​brevets and brevet-ishes, but in a gravel version, i.e., with a mixed-surface course.
✳️ Warta Gravet isn't a race, unless you want to race yourself. However, you can't reach the finish line earlier than certain hours after the start. No timing, no results, no competition. The winner will be everyone who completes the gravel, regardless of arrival order.
✳️ What does it involve?
3 days before the event, you will receive a GPX file with a 100 km or 160 km route to choose from, and on the day of the start you will also receive a gravel card, which you will fill out by following the designated course. The event supports local shops and cafes along the route. You can ride alone, you can go with friends, you can help each other.

Come, meet new people with the same passion, explore the area, and have fun along the route!

GravOn KIGR 2026 – a cycling ultramarathon in the Jizera Mountains and Karkonosze Mountains!

The next edition of the GravOn KIGR | Karkonosze Izery Gravel Race – one of the most demanding gravel ultramarathons in Poland – will take place from August 6-9, 2026.

The event will be based at the Lower Silesian Sports Center Polana Jakuszycka. The LONG distance is scheduled to start on August 7 at 6:00 AM. Participants will have to cover approximately 400 kilometers and 8,000 meters of elevation gain, with a time limit of 60 hours.

SHORT distance competitors will start on August 8 at 6:00 AM. The route will be approximately 200 kilometers and 4,000 meters of elevation gain, with a time limit of 36 hours. A limited category for electric bike users will also be available for the shorter distance.

The loop routes will run through Poland and the Czech Republic, including the Karkonosze Mountains, the Jizera Mountains, the Jizera Foothills, the Bóbr Valley, the Jelenia Góra Valley, and the Rudawy Janowickie Mountains. Participants will navigate gravel, forest, field, and asphalt roads.

The ultramarathon is self-supported, meaning participants will complete the route independently, organizing accommodation, meals, and equipment repairs. Each competitor will receive a device to track their location, a GPX file, and a detailed route description. At least two rest stops with access to water, electricity, and refreshments will be provided on the gravel routes.

GravOn KIGR is for experienced and well-prepared cyclists who want to challenge themselves with long distances, mountainous terrain, and their own limitations.

This route is greater than the sum of its sections. The most beautiful places you can reach by bike. 600 kilometers of pure freedom in the mountains. Effort that awaits its reward. Breathtaking, technical descents. The entire Carpathians at once. The Silesian Beskids, the Żywiec Beskids, Babia Góra, the Gorce Mountains, the Pieniny Mountains, the Sądecki Beskids, the Low Beskids, and finally, the wild Bieszczady Mountains. This is the Carpathia Divide, this is the Polish Carpathians, this is Polish Adventure Cycling.
Rules: The route must be completed by bike, using only your own strength.
The competition is held without external support. This means that if you wish to ride in clean shorts, you must bring them, wash them, or purchase them along the way. This rule applies to all aspects of completing the CD Route, including eating, drinking, sleeping, and equipment maintenance. Everyone must have an equal opportunity.
Support between participants is consistent with these rules and is welcome.
The entire CD Route must be completed according to the route provided by the organizer, while respecting other CD Rules and the law (private property, nature conservation, and road traffic law).
Leaving the Route is permitted without restrictions, provided you return to the Route at the same point.
The time is counted continuously from the start until you check in at the finish line.
Separate classifications will be held for men and women. The final ranking will be determined by the time taken to complete the Route.
The maximum time limit for classification is 170 hours. Someone must win, but no one will lose.
Confirmation of completing the CD Route will be a GPX file created by the participant during the ride.
The organizers recommend against riding at night or in other conditions that limit visibility and safety. However, if you choose to do so, you must be equipped with front and rear lights to ensure your safety and the safety of others. Remember that in conditions of limited visibility and prolonged fatigue, your ability to realistically assess risks is limited (if you see snow groomers or a unicorn on the road while driving, stop immediately, take a photo of it and go to sleep).
