Hansens Cykelløb was the first race to combine 146 km of gravel cycling with a gastronomic experience. The race is based on the Danish tradition of good, clean ingredients & cycling in the most beautiful nature.
Hansens Cykelløb offers an experience of a lifetime in the company of our beautiful Danish nature. We are taken through fjords, forests, over fields and consist of 146 beautiful km spread over sports gravel, soft single-tracks and a bit of asphalt in between. The race can be run as a race with a tight chain, but preferably with one hand on the handlebars, loose thread and lots of enjoyment.
As Denmark’s oldest ice cream factory, Hansens Icecream places great value on tradition. And a central part of the tradition at Hansens Icecream is cycling.
Hansen’s cykelløb is an all-surface cycle race – we ride where there is the most beauty and least traffic. We ride on asphalt, gravel and light single-tracks – it is best ridden on a cyclo-cross bike, or a cross-over with similar characteristics. A Gran Fondo or regular racing bike with rough or wide tires can also work just fine. A mountain bike is also an option, but it can feel heavy on the long asphalt stretches, and there will not be technical tracks suitable for this.
