LandeveisBirken 2013 Cycling Event

Published: 24.09.12

In 2013, Omega invites you to try out one of Norway's newest cycling events. LandeveisBirken is a 170km-long cycling road race between Rena and Lillehammer. You can now sign up to ride 170km or 80km on 2 June 2013, via Advantage Events.

Last year, 1000 cyclists tried out the road course between Rena and Lillehammer, when LandeveisBirken was held for the first time. The race is the latest in a long line of sporting events involving the famous Birkebeiner course. The Birkebeineer mountainbike race is already a well-established event.
