In the Gotland Grand Nationals’ Veteran Classes, participants compete not based on the rider’s age but on the motorcycle itself. Here, the older motorcycles race against each other on Friday and are divided into four different classes.
Price
The course for the Veteran Class is a loop of approximately 14 km that includes lap counting, a refueling loop, and the finish line. The course varies in terms of terrain, width, and marking. Officials on motorcycles patrol the course and are in radio contact with medical personnel and race officials. If you drive through the markings, you must re-enter the course at the same spot.
The course is 14 km long
