Regional TAT director Somradee Chanchai says the Tour of Isan Loei Classic is open to all comers, but the deadline for entries is 31 May and is limited to a maximum 300 entrants. The competitors and their machines are divided into two categories. These are road-racers and mountain bikes.
Ms Chanchai further explained the victors in both categories would each receive a trophy and a cycling shirt. The route for the rally is 70kms long and the start and finish points are Loei’s renowned Phu Pa Po Mountain.
TAT is collaborating with the Loei Provincial Administration, Nok Air and cycling organisations in staging this and four other forthcoming cycle events in Isan. Ms Chanchai says the rallies will follow inimitable courses that take in scenic and cultural highlights in their respective locations.
