Born in the dust.
Made for today.
Europe’s forgotten long-distance rides. Ridden anew.
Historic lines across Europe. Self-supported. One route, one time limit, no support crew.
Long distance tests judgement under fatigue, not the capacity for suffering.
Navigation, food, sleep and rest are yours to manage.
Four lines across Europe
Vienna–Trieste
Milan–Munich
Basel–Kleve
Long-distance rides, ridden anew
Supergrevets revive the great long-distance rides of the pioneering era: Vienna–Berlin, Vienna–Trieste, Basel–Kleve and Milan–Munich. Today their lines run over gravel, forest tracks and quiet back roads across Europe. Every route is fully scouted, documented as a GPX file and built for a long, self-supported ride.
One route. One time limit. No support crew. Whoever starts, rides on their own.
Before long-distance was called ultra
In the late 19th century, the first great long-distance races were held on Europe’s roads. Vienna–Trieste, Vienna–Berlin, Milan–Munich and Basel–Kleve were among the rides that showed what distances had become possible by bicycle.
„The bicycle became a means of transport.”

Planned in Berlin. Scouted on the ground. Ridden across Europe.
Supergrevet is a project by Grevet and CXBerlin. The routes emerge from maps, archive research and many kilometres on the ground.
