Sensational rush: 6000 registrations for the LeezenCup 2025!
The LeezenCup, the popular cycling race as part of the Sparkassen Münsterland Giro, brings a breath of fresh air to the region and is on course for a record. Two months before the event on October 3rd, over 6,000 hobby drivers have already registered - an increase that significantly exceeds the 5,200 participants from last year. Radiowaf reports that registration for the routes was quickly booked up and the last places were snapped up like hot cakes.
The event has developed into a real highlight for all cycling enthusiasts. The route, which mainly runs through the Warendorf district, starts in Oelde-Stromberg and takes the cycling professionals over more than 190 kilometers to the magnificent castle in Münster. Hobby riders also have the opportunity to choose between different distances. Westphalian News informs that participants have options of 65, 95 and 125 kilometers available, with the start for amateur athletes taking place at 8 a.m. at the Principal Market.
Fascination LeezenCup
The LeezenCup has not only developed into a popular sporting event, but is also an important event for the region.

The race not only attracts local participants, but has also made a name for itself beyond the borders.
The professionals' route, which stretches over 202 kilometers, leads through the Münsterland districts of Borken, Coesfeld and Steinfurt and begins in the historic center of Haltern, which is about 40 kilometers as the crow flies from the finish. This challenging route promises exciting competitions and provides breathtaking images.
