24 climbs, 240 km and 2400 metres in altitude! Not the flatlands of northern Germany! Here you don't have to be a bungler, but a bruiser. This is the "Beast of Bramsche" road bike marathon, organised by the cycling department of TuS Bramsche, on Saturday, 14 June 2024, now for the third time. It's going to be "beastly"! And especially in Bad Essen, because a large part of the route also passes through here! Who wouldn't want to test the profile of a Tour of Flanders without having to travel to Belgium? With the "Beast of Bramsche", you have this right on your doorstep when you set off from Bramsche towards the south-eastern district of Osnabrück and back to Bramsche. This is the profile of a true cycling classic, just like the big spring races in the Benelux countries.

From Sunday, 15 December 2024, the time has come! The registration portal www.beastofbramsche.de is open for the third edition. If you are an ambitious cyclist, log in quickly and secure one of the coveted 500 starting places. The route is almost unchanged in 2025 and leaves no beautiful spot in this wonderful cycling region untouched.

Refreshment points will be set up at the SV Wissingen sports centre and at the gyms in Buer and Wellingholzhausen. A warm, energising meal will also be waiting for the athletes in Wissingen. In total, more than 50 highly motivated helpers and medical staff will be on the route and on site in Bramsche to support the cyclists. Participants from all over Germany and abroad - especially the Netherlands - are expected to take part. The cycling department of TuS Bramsche as the organiser is looking forward to welcoming its racing cyclists. The start and finish location is the Haupt- und Realschule in Bramsche, Heinrichstr. Start documents, breakfast buffet and shower facilities are available on site.

The start for the "Beast" will be on Saturday, 14 June 2025, at 06:00 in the morning.

If the training kilometres are not enough for the "Beast" this time, a start at the "Little Beast of Bramsche" is first on the agenda. The glass is only half full here: 12 climbs, 120 km and (only) 1200 metres of elevation gain await you. The start is at 7.30 a.m. on 14 June 2025 and the entry fee for both events is 59.90 euros each.
