I am an amateur(do not have any licence) mountain biker from Ukraine and interested in participating in the Marathons of 2006 year in SK.
Where can I see calendar of these events? And what normally I need to participate in the Marathon races?
thanks:)
the 2006 Marathon calendar is not available at this time.If you want to participate in SVK marathon races, you only need to pay registration fee (every marathon has its own price).
You should check those pages below a bit later:
http://the.mtbiker.sk/index.php?modul=kalendare -ther you can find XC,Marathon or DH races.
Good luck !

MTB maraton Medzihorim (Partizanske) - not held in 2006
I'm asking so early because I need some time to get visa, and want to plan and take some friends with me
Now the main problem is to choose the most interesting marathons with nice mountain route, nice organization and a lot of participants
ps. almost cant understand your last message
Lot of bikers said that the hardest marathon is Dubnicky maraton. He is also most famous in Slovakia and also has a nice mountain route.I think you should try it with your friends.
There are reviews of marathons and XC races on MTBiker site, but I'm worrying that you won't understand a lot.
See http://the.mtbiker.sk/index.php?modul=kalendare for additional info about dates...
I wish you nice adventures on Slovak mountains.

cervo: In case we come in Slovakia, we will stay only on weekend, a couple of days, just to participate in some event...But who knows...
it's going to be on June 26 next year.
