About HERO series

The HERO Series is back! Dedicated to people looking for that extra challenge, in pursuit of that adrenaline rush which comes from following one’s passion. Get ready for summer 2024 – three UCI races are lined up for our HEROes. The first in the series kicks off in June with the BMW HERO Südtirol Dolomites, followed in July by the Black Forest Ultra Bike Marathon in Germany, and ends with the Iron Bike in Switzerland in September. Each race is different from the other and yet they all share a stunning stage, all trails set against the backdrop of breathtaking nature. Each Organising Committee are committed to protect the natural area by implementing sustainability programmes.

But there’s more! The Series is preceded by the very first edition of the HERO Abu Dhabi, taking place in February 2024. A long weekend boasting cross-country and short track races on the Trail X facility in Hudayriyat. These races, set in the UCI calendar, will contribute towards qualifying for the XCO events in Paris at the Olympics.
