What this race demands
This 90 km gravel ride across the Veluwe demands sustained aerobic output and technical concentration over a moderate distance in late autumn conditions.
Aerobic endurance
Covering 90 km requires a well-developed aerobic engine capable of maintaining steady power output over several hours in the saddle.
Gravel handling
Riding off-road over the Veluwe demands constant bike control and upper body resilience to manage loose gravel and varied terrain.
Late-season pacing

A ride of this duration typically requires consuming 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to maintain glycogen stores and sustain performance.
