In these times of the Corona pandemic, the RSC Bad Homburg and the mayor of the city of Bad Homburg have come up with this alternative race format again, following last year's great success and remarkable attendance.
Everybody can and is welcome to participate. For free. (Link for an additional 14 Days Free ROUVY Trial)
Ambitious, amateur athletes and specially invited World Tour pro riders, this year's Tour de France stage winner, Nils Politt (Bora-Hansgrohe) and “Local Hero”, John Degenkolb (Lotto-Soudal), will join and fight in this virtual crit race. The race will be on the filmed, real but virtually augmented, race course of 40 km (25 laps).
Broadcast
You are welcome to follow and watch the event that will be live-streamed on the YouTube channel here.
Although the colorful cycling festival on Kaiser-Friedrich-Promenade is canceled in the real world - virtually everyone can still enjoy the great atmosphere and excitement on your home screen. As in the previous year, Robert Bengsch will be the anchorman and commentator; he also commentates for major cycling events such as the Tour de France at Eurosport TV.
Registration
Bad Homburg's Mayor Alexander Hetjes strongly supports this form of "Corona safe" sports event. The organizers Moritz Dick and Friedrich Uwe Janovszki are again very happy to present this high-class cycling competition.
