THE RACE

Picture
THE HIGHWHEEL BICYCLE    The iconic bike has a big front wheel and a very small rear wheel. The pedals are fixed to the front hub and when speeding up the cadence gets extreme. The tyres are solid and the rider feels all the bumps of the road. Helmet is mandatory.

WORLD´S ONLY PENNY FARTHING STAGE RACE   -   FOUR RACES IN THREE DAYS
SWEDEN 3 DAYS consists of four stages which all of them also acts as individual races. Stage 1 is a 10km time trial (individual start) on sweeping roads in beautiful farming landscape. Stage 2 is a circuit race on a speedy motor raceway. Stage 3 is a circuit race in downtown Lund and this is where we expect the big crowds (the city is planning for "a highwheel party" all Saturday). Stage 4 is a brutal 2 hours endurance race. The trophy (SWEDEN 3 DAYS) is for the total winner.
