Sauna retreat in between races in Finland

When adding one round, making the first race weekend of Viking Cup 2025 a double header the schedule was an issue to solve.

Tweaking and twisting schedules on a race day is actually not a big deal. Due to rain or other mishaps organizers are often forced to be very flexible and most important is that the riders get the same info continously. To avoid a stressfull weekend in Finland organizers promise to make the absolutely best for the riders and after the first day of racing in Varkaus, Kauhajoki came up with the great idea of offering the riders an evening snack and of course sauna when arriving Saturday evening.

Only 500-600 meters from the track Kahaujoki offer both snack, sauna as well as accomodation for the ones that doesnt like to sleep in camper van or race truck.

– We can most likely offer breakfast sunday morning as well, says Ville Pihlaja from Kauhajoen moottorikerho ry.

The riders will get the info by the mail they used when signed up and everyone interested in the full package or choosen parts of it are kindly asked to send declaration of interest to stated email.

The riders well being is most important to make a good race. Happy riders makes better racing and that brings spectators, so good job Kauhajoki. this will for sure be appreciated by the riders.
