Six years running, Velosabor "Napenalki s Tarkeleci" brings riders from across Bulgaria and beyond to Smolyan for three days of shuttle-supported enduro in the Rhodope Mountains.
21 trails. 50 km of descending, more than 7,000 m of vertical.
Not a single trail ridden twice. Vans run from morning to evening. Riders split into groups by pace, each with a guide who knows the lines.
Registration is open:

No race clock. Just three days of riding, evenings around a fire, and trails that a local community has spent years building and maintaining.
PS: The name is in Rhodopean dialect. Nobody outside these mountains can pronounce it, and that's fine. Roughly: "Bike Pushers' Jamboree." Say "Velosabor" and everyone will know what you mean.
