Course description
What's on the road
Start and finish are in Sieraków, with the arch and barriers along the course. The road heads into the pinewoods of the Notecka Forest, passes lakes on both sides, goes through Kwilcz with three turns along Ogrodowa Street and returns to Sieraków. One lap is the 1/8 IM distance; 1/4 IM is two laps, 1/2 IM four.
What counts is geometry and physics: every turn and every percent of climbing are where they are on the real road, and the gradient goes to your trainer over FTMS. Speed is calculated from power and the weight of rider and bike, so your pace on the trainer matches your pace on the tarmac.

- Three turns along Ogrodowa Street in Kwilcz, villages and lakes on the way
