We are delighted to welcome you again in 2025 for the ODS-Vitaal Classic. Get ready for a day full of sporting challenges, beautiful cycling routes and the unique charm of the South Limburg countryside.
After the many enthusiastic reactions to last year’s start and finish location, we are happy to once again choose to start in the atmospheric town of Berg en Terblijt, on the outskirts of Valkenburg. You can choose from three beautiful routes that take you through the iconic South Limburg hills.
After the ride, there is plenty of opportunity to celebrate your achievement. End the day with a delicious meal and a fun get together with your fellow cyclists.
We work with a maximum number of participants, so grab your chance before 14 August and secure yourself a place. Guest teams are welcome! A guest team is possible from as little as two people.
