Race 4: 3- and 6-hour races

Time: Sunday 10 am (6 hour race) and 1 pm (3 hour race)
Track: Sloten 2.5 km

How far can you get on an aerodynamic bicycle in a quarter of a day? That is the question that the 6 hour race answers. The world record is 376.05 km. This endurance race has a dedicated fanbase but it is quite small because of the skills required. Therefore we also organize a 3 hour race, which starts halfway the 6 hour race, so that the 6 hour racers get good company during the toughest part of the race.

The following rules apply to the 3 and 6 hour races.

  1. The 6 hour race starts at 10 am, the 3 hour race joins at 1 pm. A large clock will display remaining time.
  2. When the race time is up, all riders get the finish flag. Rank is based on total distance covered.
  3. Prizes are awarded for the 3 hour and 6 hour races independently.
  4. For the impact of your 3 or 6 hour result on your overall ranking, see the overall ranking page.
