Hyundai Motor Hosts First Long-Distance Bicycle Festival 'N Cycling Festival'

A 360km Long-Distance Ride Connecting Inje to Taean Over 2 Days and 1 Night

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] Hyundai Motor Company announced on the 7th that it will hold the 'Hyundai N Cycling Festival.'

The Hyundai N Cycling Festival is the first bicycle event organized by Hyundai Motor. It is a non-competitive cycling event following the 'Hyundai N Festival' and 'Hyundai N e-Festival.'

Participants will start by riding on the Inje Speedium circuit and then take part in a long-distance ride of 360 km over 1 night and 2 days, connecting Inje and Taean. This offers an opportunity to indirectly experience Hyundai Motor's N brand philosophy of 'high performance' and motorsports 'teamwork.'

Registration will begin on a first-come, first-served basis on Hyundai Motor's website starting today, and about 300 cycling enthusiasts will participate in teams of four from September 24th to 25th (Sunday).

On the first day, the event starts at the Hyundai N Lounge inside Inje Speedium (located in Inje-gun, Gangwon Province) and ends at Yangji Pine Resort (located in Yangji-myeon, Cheoin-gu, Yongin City). On the second day, the course runs from Yangji to Taean as the final destination. Detailed information regarding participation can be found on Hyundai Motor's website.

Til Vattenberg, Head of Hyundai Motor N Brand Management & Motorsports Division, stated, "We hope participants gain a sense of accomplishment by completing the challenging long-distance course through an event that reflects the N brand philosophy of 'teamwork,' emphasized by Hyundai in motorsports such as WRC and the N?rburgring 24-hour endurance race."
