1000KM.si: What is this?

1000km.si …

… for those who want something more …

1000km.si is the only road bikepacking competition in Slovenia and we at the Bikepacking Slovenia Sports Association are extremely proud that we are breaking new ground in the field of road competitive bikepacking in Slovenia. We have approached this project comprehensively and gradually. We want bikepacking to become a way of cycling, so we have set quite strict rules for participation, as we want to enforce serious ethical and moral standards, all of which are essentially no different from the vast majority of similar competitions around the world.

We want you to wish for something more and to be proud of yourself at the end of this unforgettable test, when you have completed the route on your own, without the help of a team to serve you in front and behind. Only then will you be able to always say that you did it all completely on your own and tell your relatives, descendants, friends, acquaintances, colleagues, etc. about the adventures during the ride.

The 1000km.si event includes:

  • bikepacking competition 1000km.si (1000 km)
  • bikepacking competition 1000km.si Junior (500 km)
  • brevet 1000km.si (1000 km; same route as the bikepacking competition 1000km.si, but in the opposite direction)
  • brevet 600 km from Primorska to Goričko and back
  • brevet 300 km from Primorska to Goričko (and back by train)
  • brevet 1200 km Trip to Prague

Be a proud bikepacker and randonneur!

Do you want something more too?

Many can, few dare!

CLUB 1000KM.SI

The 1000km.si Club includes all participants who, in the years when the brevet and/or bikepacking race was organized, reached the finish line within the prescribed time and have the status of finisher. In the bikepacking race, in addition to solo competition, it is also possible to compete in pairs, tandems or in a 4 x 250 km relay. In these cases, of course, those who reach the finish line in a relay do not qualify for the 1000km.si Club, as they do not cover the entire distance.
