Traffic and safety
Safety is a big priority in the Gran Fondo Svendborg. On Sunday, June 9th, the European Parliament elections will be held in Denmark. All EU citizens are required to vote between June 6th and 9th. In Denmark, the election will take place on Sunday, June 9th. The Danish authorities informed us on May 23, 2024, that we cannot prevent eligible voters from leaving their homes to go to polling stations. This means the Gran Fondo and Medio Fondo routes are in partially open traffic, and participants must adhere to the Danish traffic law. The entire route is covered by officials in corners and crossings. Big pelotons will be accompanied by Race Marshalls on motorcycles to divert and slow traffic down. Participation in the race is at your own risk, and the organizers disclaim any responsibility for personal injury or material damage
