Red Bull Trans-Siberian Extreme
A new cycling stage race has been introduced for 2015 that makes the Tour de France, Giro d'Italia and Vuelta a Espana look positively puny in comparison. The Red Bull Trans-Siberian Extreme in Russia is a 9200-kilometre race featuring 15 stages and a total of 58 kilometres of climbing.
The inaugural event takes place over July 14-August 6, starting in Russian capital city Moscow and then broadly following the route of the famous Trans-Siberian railway finishing in Vladivostok, on the Pacific Ocean.
