At the eMTB Challenge at the BIKE Festival Willingen it's not just the bikes that are energised. To keep the excitement high among the participants, route planner Volker Schröder has come up with a new route around Willingen for this edition. "More flowy and not so hard, just for anyone who likes to ride an e-MTB," is how he describes the new route.
However, Schröder has not completely erased the really tricky stages from the route plan for the Advanced starting group. Depending on the category, there are up to six special stages to tackle. In between, you can casually and relaxedly drift from stage to stage with your mates. But once you get there, all the voltage regulators are ramped up again.
