We are proud to be MTB cycling marathon organisers for 25 years, including the European championship in the MTB marathon in 2016, for which we received a gratitude from UEC president. We have been present, have helped build and sustain MTB cycling traditions in Latvia.
The LVM MTB marathon is still one of the most popular and most attended cycling marathons in Latvia. In 2023 we are planning to organise 6 LVM MTB marathon stages in 6 Latvian cities which guarantees track, landscape, MTB adventure diversity.

There is Lielbāta MTB distance (30-40 km), mammadaba MTB distance (15-25 km), Children competition and, following cycling world trends, we have added Toyota Gravel distance (55-70 km) in our competition program

Dear cycling lovers. First of all, I would like to say a big thank you and congratulate you on the start of the new season! Cesis – Valmiera was a real holiday for every cyclist. The next stage, which will take place for the first time in Ķeipene, Ogre region, is fast approaching. The winter did not recede for a very long time this year, as a result of which there were very limited opportunities to plan and prepare the route of the new section in time. Although the conditions are now much more pleasant, there are still a number of significant challenges in preparing the track to be safe and enjoyable.
As a result, we are forced to make a decision to move the Ķeipene stage of the LVM MTB marathon a week later from May 7 to 14. Until then, the track will be prepared at the highest level for everyone to enjoy.
Hope of understanding,
The organizing team
In the 1st stage of the LVM Mountain Bike Marathon in Cesis – Valmiera Maxima children’s race will take place in both Cesis and Valmiera. Choose a race city and register.
