Sparkasse Munsterland Giro

Geldern, 19 September 2025

  • Gerd Bloemen from Geldern is here at the start for Cycle Club Advantag
  • On 3 October, all expectations will already have been exceeded
  • A new record edition is on the cards with 7,500 participants

A holiday on two wheels: on 3 October, German Unity Day, the Provinzial Insurance Cup will take cyclists on a varied 95-kilometre route through the heart of the Munsterland region. Starting at the historic Prinzipalmarkt, the route leads via Sendenhorst and Telgte on a 65-kilometre loop – past fields, villages and the Rieselfelder near Münster. The final entrance against the backdrop of the castle is the emotional highlight: here, spectators cheer on the athletes as they cross the finish line. Whether you’re aiming for a personal best or simply enjoying the route, this course has it all.

In between is the Provinzial Insurance Cup over 95 kilometres – a balanced mix of entry-level and long-distance cycling, which has proven to be a favourite with over 3,000 registrations.

The 95-kilometre route is very flat, and I expect the pace to be hellish from the start. To get a place on the podium in the Masters 5 age group, an average speed of 38-40 km/h is required.

For this reason, the Gelderner cyclist has trained extensively in the threshold range to achieve the necessary racing toughness. It is also the end of the season for Gerd Bloemen.

Gerd Bloemen will be competing in this cycle race for ‘Cycle Club Advantag’, where he has long been supported by Gelderner Advantag GmbH.
