FAQ

Montenegro Mountain Madness is a single-stage, self-supported bikepacking event across Montenegro.

There are no aid stations, no support cars, and no one carrying your bags. You are responsible for your own ride: where you sleep, where you eat, how you deal with mechanical problems and how you manage everything the mountains decide to throw at you.

The route is fixed, with a shared start and finish line. What happens in between is your adventure.

What kind of bike do you recommend?

The perfect bike is the one you love riding!

Although the Madness has a mountain bike route, there are no excessive technical difficulties and tarmac roads are around 40%. Riding an MTB or a gravel/monster bike with chucky tires will allow you to enjoy it fully!

How many people can ride together?

You can ride the Madness SOLO or in PAIRS. Rules apply to both categories, but consider pairs as a whole. Members of pairs can share food, equipment, drafting…

Both members of a pair must register for the race and will have a personal tracker.

How do I organize my accommodation before/during/after the race?

This is, by all means, an unsupported race. You’ll therefore need to arrange your stays before, during, and after the race. In the Road Book, we’ll provide some general information to help you organize your stay before the start and at the finish line.
