second edition
12-13-14-15 october 2023
"During the first edition 36 athletes representing 9 European nations met in Alghero to live an exciting experience that has combined the elements of epic adventure to those of the inner journey.
UltraBiking Sardinia goes beyond the classic ultracycling markedly competitive, it deviates from bike trails within the reach of everyone but wants to decline the ultradistance in an original way: combine the challenge with yourself in achieving a highly challenging goal (distance, altitude require a very high degree of preparation), with adventure (represented by the wild territory of Sardinia) and with 100% unsupported mode.
If you believe in dreams, if you love adventure and if the challenges do not scare you the second edition of UBS790 awaits you; welcome to UltraBiking Sardinia’s DREAMERS."

AN EXPERIENCE FOR DREAMERS
We called our members "Dreamers" because we know well the power of dreams.
The pleasure of planning a venture with months in advance, training with constancy and then showing up on the starting line ready to do the full of emotions!
WISH IT, DREAM IT, DO IT
Cycling is a sport...ultracycling is another discipline: at a certain point it is no longer a physical performance,
it becomes a mental matter. In Ultra you discover your soul ... and this is priceless!
ULTRABIKING SARDINIA: YOUR ADVENTURE
Participating in the UBS 790 means living an extraordinary life experience. Do not forget: it is a personal challenge against time, and for this reason there are no prizes and the reward (represented by the medal of finisher) will be the invaluable satisfaction of having made it.
Ultrabiking Sardinia is not a mass event and is not suitable for everyone. It’s an adventure dedicated to women and men who love to dream, know how to suffer and strongly believe in the values of sportsmanship. The event is not only designed for experienced Ultracyclers (who can challenge themselves on a very challenging route) but is also the ideal event for beginners: the time limit of 60h will allow them to manage their participation planning night break...but be careful the stopwatch does not stop and the time gate to pass at each time station could close.

THE ROUTE
The route of Ultrabiking Sardinia was born from our training
Every kilometer has been pedaled, every climb has been conquered with our sweat, every descent faced to verify its safety. The sections to be covered at night have been evaluated analyzing the conditions of feasibility and traffic. We have also developed the route trying to allow you to enjoy the beauty of the landscapes during the daytime and in the same way we have foreseen traits of complete solitude away from inhabited centers during which you will have to manage your supplies.
OUR MISSION
The project of Ultrabiking Sardinia is not only to offer a great endurance experience that represents the opportunity to live intense emotions. As Organizers we want to spread our values of sportiness and promote the territory through a sports tourism sensitive to respect for nature. We strongly believe that Ultracycling represents a great opportunity to improve people’s quality of life. By measuring with fatigue and difficulties, each participant increases the awareness of his own self-effectiveness, transferring then in everyday life the awareness of his own abilities.
