Out for Sauser Bike Marathon

According to Urs Wüthrich, OC President of the Hasliberg Marathon, the still young event will not be held this year. The reason for this is that Sauser will not be riding "his" race himself. Sauser is concentrating on the (more lucrative) Swisspower Cup race on Sunday, May 22. Last year, Sauser only appeared for the prize-giving ceremony - late. Under these circumstances, there is no reason to continue with the marathon.

Urs Wüthrich brought the marathon, formerly known as the Sauserwind Open, from Sigriswil to Hasliberg in 2003. Now the end seems final. However, there is no reason to be too sad: Saturday will continue to be used for the Team Relay and the fun categories of the Swisspower Cup. Hasliberg will therefore continue to be used for bike racing. However, it seems to be a matter of name sponsorships: the future of the Frischi Bike Challenge is also still uncertain.
