Gravel Primavera Borgå
THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING
Gravel Primavera Borgå will be the opening event of the 2026 Nordic Gravel Series calendar. We welcome you to the historic coastline and hardpack gravel roads just 40 minutes east of Helsinki. Distances of 50, 100, 150 and 300km. Expect limited hight meters (1400hm on the 150km distance) but great scenery and excellent gravel roads.
The city of Porvoo is known for its beautiful old town and cycling history. The Porvoon Ajot race has been organized since 1926 and now this beautiful 13th century town will be the host for the Primavera Borgå gravel season opener.
100km, 150km and 300km welcome both racers and social riders. U19 (Juniors) will start together with the 100km participants. All distances are timed, however the 50km is not a race (no podium). All types off bikes are allowed, including e-bikes (no classification).
Race timing, marked routes, medical insurance, service points, post-ride snack and first aid included in the registration. BMC rental bikes available for the event weekend on the registration page.
