The Heritage Ride
The Heritage Ride is a recreational group ride offering two distance-options: 55km or 110km. Cyclists of varying cycling abilities and equipment will be divided in 3 groups, so that everyone gets to enjoy the ride at their own pace. Tribob coaches will be leading the groups. The Heritage ride was introduced to the Vietnam Triatlon in 2008, for participants to enjoy the unique Vietnamese heritage and countryside. Something you may not get to do during the competition. And since you have made all this effort to bring your bike to Hoi An, you’d better use it!
Mountain bikes are allowed and can be rented on site. Send us an if you want to rent a bicycle.
Programme
UNESCO World Heritage Site Hoi An is the first stop of the Heritage Ride. After a quick picture pose in the charming old town and at the ancient Japanese bridge, the ride ventures into the country side of green paddy fields, winding rivers and country villages with the mountains of the Truong Son Range looming in the background. Final destination is another UNESCO World Heritage site, My Son Valley. Enjoy a local lunch among the ruins that used to be the spiritual centre of the ancient Cham Kingdom.
