Surmont mountain bike challenge 2013

Surmont Club will invite you to Azuga on July 7 for the 4th edition of the Surmont MTB Challenge, a marathon competition dedicated to all mountain bikers who love wild nature, from enthusiastic amateurs to seasoned and experienced competitors. The competition routes have progressive degrees of difficulty, starting on the forest roads in the idyllic Azuga Valley, continued on the forest and alpine trails of the Baiului Mountains. The wide and smooth portions intertwine with technical sections, steep climbs and descents, with a large difference in level.

On the long route there were also two special tests, "King Of The Hill", the trophy for the best climber, and "Speed Master", the distinction for the fiercest descender.

The day before the competition, on Saturday, July 6, competitors and the public are invited to "Trek Fest 2013", with technical workshops and test sessions of bicycles from the Trek MTB 2013 collection, and in the evening they are invited to a campfire and a journey into the past with film screenings from the Surmont event archive, the longest-running mountain bike club in Romania.
