A new chapter
It was announced a few weeks ago that the title sponsor VPACE will be on board for another three years. Now there is more news about the series for the very youngest. As the year draws to a close, planning for the coming season is on the agenda for many. In addition to the dates, further additions to the sponsorship portfolio can also be announced, but one thing at a time...
A total of six races are planned this year, with the obligatory start in Winterberg and Willingen, as in previous years. Due to increased demand, there are even two races in Winterberg. However, participation is only possible in one of the two races. After the festival stops, there will be some peace and quiet, as the next host is the tranquil town of Oberhof in the Thuringian Forest. A new location was chosen for the fourth round this time. For the first time, it's heading deep into Bavaria, to Farchant to be precise. The series then heads to last year's newcomer. Ilmenau immediately proved to be a favourite with its lovingly designed route. As usual, the finale will be held at the BIKE Festival in Leogang, Austria, so that a real Alpine backdrop will once again form the panorama at the end.

MAXXIS and the "Aktiv-Schule Emleben" are new sponsors
The importance and high profile of the series is also emphasised by the fact that further partners are involved. With MAXXIS, a new sponsor has been found who is happy to support the next generation in this way. The series is also supported by the Aktiv-Schule Emleben, which not only supports children at school with a special educational concept, but also encourages sporting activities in their free time.
