thank you all for your efforts, your perseverance and your courage for this 5th edition
It was a success despite the exceptional weather…
we have already announced that the 6th edition will take place from 3 to 7 September 2025.
The 2025 Challenge will be revealed at the beginning of 2025.
Registrations will open, as usual, on the first day of Spring 2025…
stay tuned!!!!
This year, we will hold our 5th edition of the SUCH …
11-15 September 2024
So get ready!
This challenge will be WET, ARTISTIC, COMPLEX and above all FUN!
it will be a nice mixture between WATER and SWISS HISTORY…
We stay true to our original concept.
The challenge remains to ride your bike through all the different ‘Cantons’ as quickly as possible.
You have to ride through all the cantons within those groups, but there is a twist, a major one…:
You have the option of avoiding one canton per group.
We named the “Joker Canton” (cf. our “Jubilee Historic Rules”) but beware, you CANNOT set a wheel inside the canton you wish to avoid (aka “Joker Canton”).
It has to be completely bypassed.
Yes, you get it, the ‘joker canton’ may not be the quickest option…
There will therefore be 26 Checkpoints this year from which you will have to bring back a drop of Swiss Holy Water, as tribute to our lakes, our rivers and …your sweat!
And of course, you need to end up on the Bundesplatz in Berne…
– Departure from any Swiss railway station, Wednesday 11 Sept. 10:10 am
– Free route, still unsupported, that’s the spirit!
– Take a sample of SUCH Holy Water with you on the SUCH Brevetcard from all the Checkpoints of the Cantons you visit according to our “Jubilee Historic Rules”.
– Finish line is set at the Bundesplatz in Bern before Sunday 15th September noon…as the brunch will open at that time !
