Changed start times for Cykelvasan 30, Cykelvasan 45, and Cykelvasan Öppet Spår 2025
Ahead of Vasaloppet's Summer Week 2025, Vasaloppet has now decided on new start times for three of the cycling races scheduled for Friday, August 8, 2025.
"Our evaluation after this year's Summer Week showed a lot of demand for earlier start times for these races, and we can now meet that demand," says Tommy Höglund, Sport Lead at Vasaloppet.
Vasaloppet’s Summer Week, running August 8–16, 2025, will kick off on the Friday with no fewer than four Cykelvasan races. Three of these start in Oxberg, while one, Cykelvasan Öppet Spår, will begin at the traditional Vasaloppet start in Berga by, Sälen.
First to start in Oxberg will be the Ungdomscykelvasan youth race, at the same time as last year: 08:00 in the morning. However, the start time for Cykelvasan 30 has been moved forward from 14:00 to 09:00, and the Cykelvasan 45 start will move from 15:30 to 11:00. The start time for Cykelvasan Öppet Spår, which begins in Sälen, has been moved from 08:00 to 11:00.
”This year, the last participants in Cykelvasan 45 started at 16:10. With this new schedule, no one will have to start their race after 13.00, which feels great. We also believe this will create a livelier and more cohesive atmosphere at both the start in Oxberg and the finish in Mora” says Tommy Höglund.
