We start the series by giving away cycling experiences in South Moravia. You'll pass countless vineyards and the Pálava monument Děvín will always be on your horizon. Compared to the following mountain monuments, you won't face as many climbing challenges, but it certainly won't be just a flat ride.
And also compared to the other two monuments, we come up with a route that will take you on a circuit. If you choose sportive style, you can choose whether to circle the Lednice-Valtice area and the Palava for a longer period of time, or head to the finish earlier after completing one or two circuits. In case you prefer the race, you ride the complete three circuits.
Both the start and the finish line are located on Svobody square in Valtice.
Two formats: sportive style and race
Do you want to enjoy closed roads, a varied route full of beautiful places and relax at the refreshment stations? Then we have a sportive style format for you.
Do you like big challenges and want to keep your coffee as a reward after crossing the finish line? Then choose the second format, push as hard as you can and keep the total time to a minimum.
Sportive style and race classification
Participants of race ride for overall and premium/segment standings. The "swing riders" choose to swing because they don't need to chase seconds and prefer the comfort of closed roads. We will of course time them, but will not create a final classification. However, we still offer an element of competitiveness - focus on the segments.
Who we are announcing
At the race we announce and award the top three men and top three women. At the same time, another winner and a winner will come from the segments - we add up the points from two climbing and one spurter. The sportive style will also have a segment king and queen. We do not keep different age categories for either format.

Service
You can take advantage of the service in the hinterland and on the route.
Parking
We have three parking areas ready for you. Take a look at a layout.
As the sewerage system is currently being reconstructed and the crucial street in the centre (Břeclavská) is closed, including the entrance to Svobody Square, follow the navigation system and use the detour routes. If you plan to arrive on Friday, use parking 1. If you are going to arrive on Saturday, do so well in advance due to the restrictions. On Saturday, park according to the direction of arrival. If you are coming from Lednice, leave your car at parking 2 or at parking 1. Coming from Breclav? Then park parking 3 is the best choice for you.
Gravel bikes
Of course you can with a gravel bike at the Road Classics. It's like you're riding on a road bicycle.
