Every route has an edge. The point where the map runs out, the legs ask why, and the horizon answers. That is where we begin.

02 Philosophy

A rider in a helmet pours water over her face to cool down in the desert heat

BEYOND creates cycling events and adventures for riders who want more than a route.

We design journeys through extraordinary landscapes, where endurance is shared, the unknown is welcome and every finish line becomes a new starting point.

  1. Endurance

    Distance tests the body. Landscape changes the mind. We build challenges worth the effort.

  2. Exploration

    Remote tracks and open horizons, chosen for the story they tell and the riders they shape.

  3. Together

    Nobody goes beyond alone. Every event is built around the people riding beside you.

03 Events

Where the road runs out

Two events designed as expeditions: from the Tunisian Sahara to the roads between the Langhe and Tuscany.

2027 editionFrom Alba to Siena, at your own pace.

Three cyclists climbing a mountain road towards the low sun, their shadows stretched across the asphalt

600 km on tarmac from the Langhe to Siena, over the Ligurian Apennines, through the Garfagnana and across Tuscany. One route, two ways to ride it: ultracycling in a single push, with at least one night in the saddle, or bikepacking in six days with stages you choose. No race, no rankings, no organised support.
