The Mediterranean Epic 2023 returned to Oropesa del Mar for the longest stage in its history. A total of 104 km with 2,200 metres of altitude and a long list of trails and technical sections put the riders to the test.

Andreas Seewald started in the overall leader's jersey but could not repeat his performance from the day before. Georg Egger, winner of the Mediterranean Epic 2022, proved to be the strongest of the day and rode alone to victory, which also earned him the overall leader's jersey. It was a perfect day for Speed Company Racing, with Lukas Baum taking second place and moving up to second overall. In the women's race, German rider Luisa Daubermann was the surprise of the first time trial of the...

The 2nd stage of the Mediterranean Epic 2023 was, with 80 kilometres and 2,150 metres of altitude, the second longest stage in the history of the race and probably the one that could be called the queen stage in terms of toughness.

The route was full of steep, technical and spectacular coastal trails that pushed the riders to their limits – the riders mastered a total of 265 km with 6100 meters of climbing. Some of the world's best riders from 30 countries competed, among them 2021 World Champion Andreas Seewald (GER), the current Cape Epic champions Georg Egger (GER) and Lukas Baum (GER), as national champions like Martin Stosek (CZE), Wout Alleman (BEL) and Hans Becking (NED). After four tough days of racing it was on...

In the men's category, Andreas Seewald gave a demonstration of strength and power on a day that, on paper, was not the most favourable for him. The German Canyon-Northwave rider flew from the early stages of the day and chased down European XCM champion Fabian Rabensteiner (Willier-Pirelli) in just over 15 minutes of racing. A sign that his pace was very high. Seewald is the current vice-world champion and with today's stage victory he gave a warning about his great form. Poland's Krzysztof L...

The Mediterranean Epic 2023 started with a day's time trial to get a taste of the terrain that the bikers will encounter in the coming stages. A first contact where they have been able to check that this year mud, water and humidity will be part of some sections of the route. The 19 km route with more than 600 metres of elevation change took the participants from the Torre del Rey de Oropesa del Mar, at sea level, to the Oropesa antennas, more than 400 metres above sea level.

The London 2012 Olympic champion, Jaroslav Kulhavy, and the young Italian promise, Martina Berta, take the explosive final stage of the Mediterranean Epic. Italian Daniele Braidot and Swiss rider Ramona Forchini claim the 2021 overall titles on the final day in the men’s and women’s elite category. A 48 km route and 1,000 meters of climbing was the last obstacle to overcome on a day where the fatigue of the long marathon stage the day before it was palpable. In the men's category, Italian bro...

Sam Gaze and Ramona Forchini have been the fastest in the longest stage of the Mediterranean Epic 2021. 93 km that have served to completely overturn the general classification, both men and women. The 93 km with more than 1,800 meters of climbing had a bit of everything: tarmac sections, smooth tracks, long rocky sections and fun trails. The Austrian Daniel Geismayr (Trek Pirelli) and the Italian Chiara Teocchi (Italian team) started the day with the leaders' jersey, but they would not be ab...
