Between ROAD and GRAVEL,
The Race Across Series offers ultra-distance cycling events accessible to all. 6 events around the world share one constant: semi-autonomy.
One thing is certain: we offer you exceptional cycling experiences on the world's most beautiful roads.
Whatever distance you choose, you'll never be alone in your challenge.
What is semi-autonomy?
The Race Across organization proposes itineraries on which basecamps are placed. Whether you choose a compact format or an itinerant one like the RAF, these basecamps become real oases where you receive assistance from the organization, your family or your team.
Meals, dormitories, showers, your personal belongings... you're not alone in your challenge, we provide you with the necessary comfort while leaving you complete autonomy on your route.
These events feature several loops revolving around a single life base, the starting point for each distance. To complete your challenge, you'll be asked to complete 1, 2 or 3 loops. The advantages of compact formats are numerous: they give you the confidence to be sure of finding your belongings and the comfort of the living base, always in the same place. They also provide a single point of contact for your family and/or friends who may come to help you during your challenge.
The RAF is our only itinerant event. Whatever the distance, you'll be asked to travel from point A to point B. Along the way, you'll always find living quarters, providing you with all the comforts you need. This is semi-autonomy. You are also allowed to receive assistance on these bases, from family or friends, as you wish. This itinerant format is the incredible experience of a lifetime, a journey as you've always imagined it.
Whether it's the RAF or one of our other events, the well-trained organization deploys impressive logistics to offer you the best experience.

Nothing is left to chance.
On every event, our entire team is mobilized to offer you a smooth and easy experience. Your luggage is transported from point A to point B, and the living quarters offer every comfort, including meals, dormitories and showers. The DROPBAG service allows you to have a relief bag at a precise point of the race. In short, we take care of everything, and you're on your way.
The Race Across Series innovates with concepts such as the "sleep rule", which imposes compulsory breaks on participants, and compulsory equipment, meticulously designed to ensure everyone's safety.
Finally, the Race Across Series always works closely with the relevant authorities to ensure that the event complies with the relevant standards and permits, demonstrating our unwavering commitment to your safety.
The Race Across is a real adventure. Between two living quarters, you're the only one in charge, completely autonomous in the face of the challenges of the route. Whether it's a mechanical breakdown or an unforeseen event, it's up to you to reach the next base by your own means. Once there, you benefit from the services offered by the organization, but also, if you wish, from the technical assistance of your family or your team. A perfect balance between autonomy and support!
The adventure begins on the launch pad, with individual starts every 30 seconds. Under the spotlights, you'll take your first steps in the race. Please note: the first to register are the first to go. Start order is determined by registration date.
For the Gravel, Mass Start is organized. All riders are ranked according to their performance on timed segments positioned along the course.
